Dambulla Cave 1: Reclining Buddha (detail)

旦布拉石窟第1窟臥佛像

斯里蘭卡

位於旦布拉石窟(Dambulla Caves)第1窟正壁。傳說此像由阿努拉德普勒時期(Anuradhapura,4世紀BCE~10世紀)的婆他伽馬尼王(Vattagamani Abhaya,89~77 BCE在位)所造。
 佛身形壯碩,面相渾圓。螺髮工整,眉毛細長彎曲,與鼻梁相接。深目高鼻,嘴唇豐厚。著袒右袈裟,衣褶稠密,呈水波紋,隨身軀的曲線自然起伏。螺髮黑色,全身金黃,足底染紅,並繪上狀似蓮花輪之華麗圖案。將佛足染紅乃斯里蘭卡佛教造像特徵之一,傳說有雙重意義,一為紀念釋迦牟尼佛曾到該國弘法,一為紀念該國祖先於佛入滅後從印度南移至該地開國,腳底沾滿紅土。
