Kofukuji Temple East Golden Hall: Vimalakirti

Cypress wood

興福寺維摩詰像 定慶

日本

位於東金堂主尊右側,與左側文殊菩薩坐像相對,為舉行維摩法會時之主尊。維摩詰居士學識卓越,老成持重,被譽為辯才第一,與年輕容貌、最具智慧的文殊菩薩明顯對比。明治時代(1868~1912)整修時,發現像內有造像銘文,得知為雕刻家定慶所作。一九五二年指定為日本國寶。
 該像由多材檜木接合而成,可分成上下兩部分,上部坐像與真人等身,像高87.9公分;下部為台座,座高79公分,比例適度;身後背屏高102公分。眼瞳鑲嵌玉石,全身裹布塗漆,施以彩色。
 維摩詰臉龐清瘦,披頭巾,眼角和嘴邊深刻數條皺紋,蹙眉,目光犀利,張口露齒。身著長袖衣袍,衣褶繁複。右手置於膝上,左手握拳舉至胸前,端坐於「宣」字形的台座上。血管、筋脈浮現,顯現老邁的病容,生動逼真。台座的腰板浮雕獅子和牡丹的圖案,以及衣桁式的背屏,皆是深受中國宋代(960~1279)雕像的影響。
