菩薩立像

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。此幡幡頭不似一般呈三角形,而以一塊長方形絹代替。願文題記由左而右豎寫「□□歸義軍節度內□/□□□□□使銀青光祿/大夫檢校工部尚書兼御/史大夫上柱國西河郡/任延朝刻□敬畫四十/九尺●(番+飛)壹條其●(番+飛)乃/龍鉤高曳直至於/□□宛轉飄飄似/飛鳩西□綵□願/令公壽同山嶽祿/比滄溟夫人延遐/花顏永茂次為原中/父母長報安康在/比妻男同霑福祐于/時大周顯德三年(956)」,以下的字跡已無法辨識。從題記得知此幡製作與藥師信仰的幡供養內容有關,且反映出當時居處敦煌者,因地區偏遠而思念家人,為其祈福的生活寫照。
 題記下方有九身菩薩,各有榜題,現只有五身菩薩的榜題可以辨識。畫幅特別狹長,左下角還可以看出一尊不完整的菩薩像,可見現存的長度尚未到盡頭。全圖施以淡彩,均以土紅施染而成。這種極長的幡在敦煌可用於懸在石窟崖面或大像窟內。
