Guangzhai Temple Seven Jewel Tower: Buddha Triad Niche

Limestone

一佛二菩薩龕像

原陝西省西安市寶慶寺七寶台

原位於陝西省西安市寶慶寺七寶台之浮雕龕像。寶慶寺為明代(1368~1644)長安(今陝西西安)附近的寺院,從部分佛龕銘文得知,此佛龕群原本安置在唐長安大明宮南面的光宅寺。光宅寺係武則天(684~705在位)於儀鳳二年(677)在此處發現佛舍利而建,長安三年(703)由譯經僧德感領導大臣為武則天造七寶台。後光宅寺毀,浮雕佛龕被移至寶慶寺七寶台,清(1644~1911)末殘存的三十多件浮雕佛龕分別流散至中國、日本與美國等處。該件為流傳至日本龕像之一,現為日本重要文化財。
 龕楣雕刻菩提葉,兩側各刻一身飛天,呈半弧形身段。主尊右手作觸地印,左手置於腹前,偏袒右肩,結跏趺坐於束腰矩形台座上。頭戴寶冠,形體結實,戴臂釧,衣紋線條均勻,簡潔明快。
 主尊左側菩薩右手持蓮葉,左手握巾帶;右側菩薩右手提淨瓶,左手持拂,皆立於仰覆蓮台上,稍扭腰身,呈「S」形曲線,袒上身,斜披絡腋,下著羊腸裙,襞褶如水波盪漾,表現衣服的柔和質感。主尊座下中央為博山形香爐,兩旁各跪坐一供養人。
