Hobodaiin Temple Main Hall: Seated Bodhisattva

Cypress wood

寶菩提院菩薩像

日本

位於日本京都市西京區大原野南春日町寶菩提院本堂,為該堂之主尊。據寺傳為如意輪觀音。除雙手前臂、足趾外,由檜木整材雕出,不刳空。除朱唇外,全面以素木潤飾而成,強調細緻堅實之紋理,刀法之精巧,其造型受中國檀像造像之影響,故有一說認為係中國雕刻師所作,約製於九世紀上半葉;另一說認為係空海歸國後所造,為虛空藏菩薩求聞佛法,增加記憶力之主尊。一九五七年指定為日本國寶。
 菩薩像高86.7公分,左手施無畏印,右手作與願印,盤左腳,舒右足垂踏台座。頭頂結花形髮髻,頭戴天冠之花環,鬢髮披覆額邊。白毫、眼瞳分別嵌飾水晶、黑石,雙眉細長,上眼瞼鼓起,目光銳利,臉頰豐厚,鼻翼鼓脹,嘴唇緊閉,五官刻深。帔帛垂掛於上半身,於背面交叉呈「X」形,並盤繞於膝前,懸垂臂間,飄落體側,襞褶繁複,刻飾渦卷紋樣,棱線挺立,具異國風之容貌與裝飾,為平安時代(794~1185)初期一木造雕像之傑作。
