觀音寺普覺及賢善首菩薩像

中國

位於毗盧殿西壁自北而南第三鋪。賢善首菩薩與普覺菩薩相鄰,中間以雲氣相隔。唐(618~907)五代(907~960)以後禪宗代興,十二圓覺菩薩亦成為寺院及石窟造像、繪畫中的常見題材,現存遺例有四川大足寶頂山石窟大佛灣第29窟圓覺洞宋(960~1279)雕十二圓覺菩薩、山西洪洞縣廣勝上寺毗盧殿明代(1368~1644)繪十二圓覺菩薩等。
 畫中二菩薩皆戴花冠,項佩珠鍊,胸飾瓔珞。普覺菩薩右手握念珠,左手置於腹前。賢善首菩薩右手外舉至肩,一股雲氣從二指間化出,左手置於腹前,動作優美,神態安詳。賢善首菩薩左側上方及普覺菩薩右側上方各立一供養天人,手托盤,內盛花、果,姿態優美。
 菩薩座前諸天據「普覺佛菩薩日宮尊天閻魔羅天」及「賢善首菩薩星宮雷神尊天」題記推測,應為日宮、閻魔羅王及星宮、雷神等天神,其形象、神態各異。其中位於普覺菩薩座前右側天神額頭前凸,濃眉上揚,雙目圓睜,肩披繡五彩雲披肩,飄帶飛揚,有吳帶當風之勢,雙手持環狀物。其他三尊天神均雙手持笏,頭戴冠,身著寬袖長袍,或結如意帶於前,或飄帶旋垂,或端身而立,或側身傾首立於雲端,形象生動。
 該寺十二圓覺菩薩像以衣著華美、裝飾繁複著稱,此二尊菩薩即充分體現了此特色。
