維摩詰像 因陀羅

中國

畫維摩詰寢疾示病的形貌。維摩詰乃中印度毗舍離城之長者。據《佛說維摩詰經》載,維摩詰曾稱病,但云其病是「以眾生病,是故我病」;待佛陀令文殊菩薩及弟子等前往探病,彼即以種種問答,揭示空、無相等大乘深義。因陀羅是元(1271~1368)末的僧侶畫家,生卒年不詳,依其畫跡寒山拾得圖的款記得知,是開封大光教禪寺的住持,法名壬梵因;又日本《君台觀左右帳》載,其曾是中國浙江杭州中天竺寺的梵僧。
 圖中人物五官用濃墨點出,衣服用淡墨畫輪廓,冠飾、領襟、袖口、衣帶則用焦墨。此幅雖筆法簡略,然將維摩詰居士示現病容的形象,表現得淋漓盡致。圖左上有普門禪師題贊「笏室毗郎兀坐/如來金粟前/身一拂龜毛/洗沙界焦芽忽/蘇枯木回春」。
