Wat Suthat: Life of the Buddha - Miracle at Sravasti

善見寺佛傳圖之舍衛城神變

泰國

位於泰國曼谷(Bangkok)善見寺(Wat Suthat)。善見寺為泰國一級皇家寺院,主要建築包括大殿、戒堂、佛堂、講經堂及僧舍等。該寺始建於一八○七年,由拉瑪一世(Rama I,1782~1809在位)建造,以供奉素可泰府瑪哈泰寺(Wat Mahathat)金銅佛坐像。
 此圖描繪舍衛城中六師外道挑戰佛陀比賽神通,佛為度化眾人,現大神變,降伏外道。
 畫面中央佛陀令一株大樹從地拔起,茂密的枝葉自上而下化現出一立二坐二臥的五佛,呈兩邊對稱的扇形布局,代表佛傳記載佛化身千種形象。圖右側六師外道見狀倉促築起台架抗衡,然台架坍塌,眾外道紛紛摔落地上。下方佛陀趺坐於金剛座上為眾人說法,其旁作國王裝扮者,應為波斯匿王。畫面背景施以暗色調,深淺層次分明,佛陀和國王的飾物貼金,顯得分外亮麗。
