Daigoji Temple: Manjusri Crossing the Sea

Ink and color on silk

文殊菩薩渡海圖

日本

繪文殊菩薩從中國五台山駕雲渡海而下的情景。造型寫實,活潑生動,為當時眾所喜愛的主題。此圖以大幅畫作而著名,繪製於十三世紀。一九五五年指定為日本國寶。
 畫面主尊文殊菩薩騎獅,由善財童子為前導,于闐王手拉韁繩,兩旁隨侍最勝老人和罽賓國(今喀什米爾)僧人佛陀波利等眷屬。文殊菩薩趺坐於獅背蓮座上;高綰的髮髻,置有五佛。身後環繞描有金邊的頭光及身光。左手執青蓮花,上置經卷,右手持智慧之劍,顯現勇猛之姿。據《圖像抄》記載,頂上五髻,表示內證五智;右手利劍,為智慧的象徵。此形象受到密教的影響,亦可見於中國敦煌的唐代(618~907)壁畫。
 以暗色調的大海作為背景,起伏的波濤似層巒疊嶂,富層次感,烘托出海面的深邃和雲朵的湧動。其技法深受中國宋畫的影響,崇尚優雅細膩的藝術風格,成為鎌倉時代(1185~1333)佛畫之特徵。
