金剛峰寺八大童子像 運慶

日本

位於日本和歌山縣伊都郡高野町金剛峰寺不動堂。此八大童子像雕造於十二世紀,像高95.5~103公分不等,為不動明王的使者。由雕像內部月輪形的銘札得知,其中惠光、惠喜、清淨比丘、烏俱婆●(w)、矜羯羅、制多迦等六身,是著名的佛像雕刻師運慶所刻,一九五五年指定為日本國寶。阿耨達及指德童子則為鎌倉時代(1185~1333)末期至日本南北朝時代(1336~1392)補作。
 八大童子之容貌、持物及身色係依《秘要法品》所載之儀軌而作,皆鑲嵌玉石,衣著和帔帛施以華麗的色彩和細碎金箔,作品保存完整。各身臉頰豐腴、圓腹,身軀結實,表情堅定深刻,造型生動自然,雙眼炯炯有神,完美表達瞬間神采飛揚的神韻,使人感到精神煥發的動力。其中,惠光童子卷髮垂肩,其右手執三叉鈷,左手執蓮花,配戴頭、胸飾;矜羯羅童子身白色,雙手合十,拇指與食指間持一金剛杵;制多迦童子色如紅蓮,頭上結五個髮髻,披肩衣,右手執寶棒,左手握三股杵。雕像動感十足,活潑明朗,屬造像群中的上乘之作。
