番王禮佛圖 (傳)趙光輔

中國

圖左下隅有「光輔」落款。卷首右上角有元(1271~1368)「天曆之寶」騎縫半印。原為中國清宮舊藏,後流入美國。畫上另有多枚鈐印。
 「光輔」即北宋(960~1127)畫家趙光輔,生卒年不詳,耀州華原(今陝西耀縣)人,宋太祖(960~976在位)時為圖畫院學生,擅畫佛像、人物及番馬;曾為寺院繪製壁畫,許昌(今河南許昌)開元寺、龍興寺皆有其畫;其畫跡圖錄於《宋朝名畫評》、《圖畫見聞志》等。
 此圖畫中國周邊少數民族酋長、番王禮佛的景象。圖中佛蓄鬚,著紅色袈裟,結跏趺坐於高蓮座上,二弟子侍立;弟子形象為一老一少。佛與弟子皆有圓形頭光,身後祥雲繚繞,突顯佛的莊嚴。佛前立一長者,戴羽冠,持物,躬身作供養狀,餘諸番王亦作禮拜、供養之狀,服飾皆呈異域裝束,其中或有跣足者,或有紅髮、蓄鬚者。
 畫面氣勢宏大,人物安排疏密有致,表情各異,為宋代(960~1279)人物畫的傑出作品。
