Avalokitesvara with a Fish Basket

Ink and color on paper

魚籃觀音菩薩像 張大千

中國

魚籃觀音又稱馬郎婦觀音,為三十三觀音之一。唐元和十二年(817),觀音化身為賣魚女,手提魚籃至陝右金沙灘,由於其年輕貌美,男士競相求之。賣魚女以背誦《觀世音菩薩普門品》、《金剛般若波羅密經》、《妙法蓮華經》三項考驗即應允婚嫁,終被馬郎迎娶。婚宴當晚,賣魚女即往生。數日後,一老和尚為點醒馬郎,令其開棺,然棺內僅存黃金鎖骨。當地村民始知賣魚女即觀音菩薩化身,此後,信佛者眾。圖左上方題字即記載此典故。
 畫中觀音綰髻,髮絲披肩,身著白衣,胸前瓔珞嚴飾。左手輕提魚籃,衣袖隨風飄動,跣足,體態優美,頗有敦煌石窟盛唐(712~756)壁畫之風。作品另有款識「乙酉(1945)正月清信弟子張大千敬造」,鈐「張爰私印」白文方印及「三千大千」、「除一切苦」朱文方印。
