Amitabha Buddha
Gilt bronze
阿彌陀佛立像
中國
該立佛與蓮台一體鑄成，底部八角形台座則另鑄，再接合而成。佛左手胸前平伸，掌心向上，右手下垂身側，掌心向前，作阿彌陀佛來迎的手勢，雙手均以拇指與食指相捻。台座內刻數字「十九」，可能為製作時用以計數。
此像臉形寬圓，腰帶高繫，益顯頭部比例大，下身比例長，上身及臉部肌肉平板，重心線位於垂直線上，左右呈靜態而穩定的平衡，是明代（1368～1644）特有的風格。內著長裙，裙褶細密而下，有條不紊，外披大衣，繞過右側手臂時，衣緣欲藏又露，衣袖寬厚而具垂墜感。整體造型在簡練圓滑的衣褶線襯托下，配合質樸的蓮台與層層細疊的台座，顯得清新脫俗，不染塵埃。
