阿難陀塔寺佛像

緬甸

位於緬甸曼德勒省蒲甘(Bagan, Mandalay)阿難陀塔寺(Ananda Temple)。該塔寺塔身正中設塔心柱,呈「十」字正方形結構,於東西南北四面開龕,供奉賢劫四佛立像,分別為東面拘那含佛、西面釋迦牟尼佛、南面迦葉佛和北面拘留孫佛。南北兩龕之立像於蒲甘王朝(約849~1287)塔寺建成時即供奉於此,東西兩龕佛像曾於十八世紀末大幅修復。
 四尊像皆為木造敷金,臉龐圓潤、眼梢上提,袈裟薄衣貼體,立於蓮台上,造型具蒲甘王朝佛像典型特徵。其中東面龕拘那含佛雙手展開,右手施與願印,左手輕拈袈裟,衣緣外展。而最特別的南面龕迦葉佛,遠觀時笑容可掬,親切祥和;近距離抬頭仰望,佛像的神情即轉為莊嚴肅穆。此特殊視覺效果,是以高超的雕刻技巧,配合整體光線的運用,使得佛像面部表情於不同的距離產生了微妙變化。
