Ink and color on silk
觀音菩薩像
甘肅省酒泉市敦煌市莫高窟第17窟出土
甘肅省酒泉市敦煌市莫高窟第17窟出土。圖上方中央繪觀音菩薩坐於蓮座上，右腿盤屈，左腳垂踏蓮台。蓮座下為方形寶座。頂上有花形華蓋。菩薩兩側各有一身跪姿供養天人，皆雙手合十，其下蓮台由五色祥雲托起。供養天人帔巾飄揚，雲氣尾端可追尋至上方華蓋處，表現從天而降之姿。
據圖下方碑形發願文榜題，此圖為鄧願於五代後周顯德二年（955）為父母而製作供養。中央題記「清信弟子鄧願……」，左側題為「故慈父清信佛弟子衙前散十將鄧章定一心供養」，右側題為「慈母信心佛弟子張氏一心供養 出過鄧氏」。榜題兩側分繪男、女供養人立於氈毯上，代表亡父及母親，供養人鄧願則以極小的身形立於亡父之後。此圖大致保存完好，唯題記缺損較多。
