Aurangabad Cave 3: Column

奧蘭加巴德石窟第3窟列柱

印度馬哈拉施特拉邦奧蘭加巴德

位於奧蘭加巴德石窟(Aurangabad Caves)第3窟大廳,被譽為印度西部佛教石窟中最華麗的石柱。列柱呈矩形排列,皆為仿木構造型,細部雕飾各有不同。柱礎呈方形,素面無飾,上端雕一裝飾帶,以密特那(Mithuna)、藥叉、卷草紋、聯珠紋等構成不同的圖像組合。
 柱身圓形,雕數重環狀飾帶,層層相疊,有蓮花紋圓環、方形寶珠卷草紋、多角形花蔓紋及棕葉紋,乃至多達六十四棱的素面環帶,組合複雜。部分飾帶雕方形或半圓形龕,內雕坐佛、藥叉、龍王及密特那像等。柱頭有作瓶形、菴摩羅果形等,四角各由龍王、藥叉守護;其上雕密特那、飛天等;兩側雕仿木構雀替,飾動物和騎士像。頂端鑿刻仿木構梁枋,密布浮雕。該窟列柱繁複精緻的雕飾,風格與阿旃陀石窟後期洞窟一脈相承。
