西天寺丈八佛立像

中國

位於山東省淄博市臨淄區西天寺。據一九二○年《臨淄縣志》記載,該寺為十六國後趙武帝石虎(334~349在位)所建。北魏時期(386~534)於寺院後修建大石佛,明代(1368~1644)重修記載則言,後殿供奉無量壽佛,即指丈八佛立像。古佛像因高度一丈八尺而被稱作「丈八佛」,像高5.6公尺,是山東省現存最大的單體石佛。二○○六年列為中國「全國重點文物保護單位」。
 西天寺現存兩尊丈八佛像,裝束略同,著褒衣博帶式袈裟,衣領翻摺垂懸,右手施無畏印,左手結與願印,立於台座上。下襬層疊有致,衣紋線條自然流暢,質感刻劃鮮明,頗具印度和中亞之藝術風格。其中一佛肉髻高圓,髮紋呈漩渦狀,臉龐俊秀;另一佛頭部曾於宋代(960~1279)修補,螺髮,頂無肉髻相,五官刻劃簡約。
 西天寺丈八佛立像代表臨淄地區佛教興盛的歷史見證,為研究山東佛教文化之重要史料。
