東大寺日光及月光菩薩像

日本

位於法華堂主尊不空●(Q)索觀音像兩側,左脇侍為日光菩薩,右脇侍是月光菩薩。與堂內他像相比,身軀較小,材質、樣式皆不同,被認為是後來從別堂遷移過來。以塑土為材質,用篦板厚塗的技法,流行於奈良時代(710~794),其造型顯然深受中國盛唐(712~756)美術的影響。一九五二年指定為日本國寶。
 二菩薩皆頭綰高髻,髮紋分綹齊整,冠帶飾菊花圖案。臉形豐圓,眉目細長,嘴形輪廓分明,身著寬袖衣袍,作合掌之姿,指尖輕合,予人靜謐之感。肩寬碩圓,身軀豐腴,身上無佩戴環釧、瓔珞等飾物,顯現其樸實之美。
 日光菩薩外披衣袍,胸前、袖口及下半身等處刻劃大襞褶。月光菩薩則於胸前結菊花形革帶,並於腹前繫結,膝前以蝴蝶結裝飾,造型簡潔。衣服質感輕柔,表現其塑造之特性。外表色彩雖已嚴重剝落,但部分留存朱紅、綠青、群青等多樣色彩和金箔的細緻紋樣。白皙之顏面,乃塑土內摻入雲母潤飾之故,顯示當時顏料調製技術之發達,可說是奈良時代造像之極致。
