Seated Buddha
Gilt bronze
佛坐像
中國
佛結跏趺坐於束腰蓮座上，雙手掌心相對，大拇指與中指相捻，作中品中生印，應為西方淨土世界的阿彌陀佛。
佛肉髻低矮略尖，上有一寶珠，髮際線中央內凹作尖形，眉間白毫凸出。著低領袈裟，腰線高，坐姿挺直，顯得下半身比例較長，腹部與腿部刻劃簡略。胸肌雖厚，然質感硬，衣褶立體流暢，承接唐代（618～907）對人體結構的熟練掌握，卻選擇性地趨於簡化。肩部、手肘處及小腿部分表現皺褶，是遼代（907～1125）造像常見的樣式。臉形長圓，五官分布平均，嘴形小，呈現契丹民族的特徵。
尊像與蓮座一體鑄成，鎏金部分脫落。束腰蓮座由重瓣仰蓮的四足几式座與圓形多層基座組合而成。蓮瓣圓厚，蓮心的蓮蕊刻劃清晰，束腰處透雕桃形圖案，為遼代典型造像特有風格。
