Buddha Triad
Stone
一佛二菩薩像
泰國
該浮雕上方中央為佛陀，雙手同時舉起結論辯印，袈裟前襬垂下，於身前形成「U」形，體現泰國他叻瓦滴時期（Dvaravati，約6～13世紀）佛立像袈裟典型樣式。兩側手持法器的脇侍，可能是帝釋天和梵天，或為菩薩。下半部為神獸波那斯波迪（Panaspati，意即森林之王），形象逗趣，其造型結合了公牛身軀、天鵝翅膀以及金翅鳥喙，因公牛、天鵝和金翅鳥分別為濕婆、梵天和毗濕奴的坐騎，故有學者推測這種佛陀駕馭印度教神祇坐騎的造像，似乎隱喻佛教的力量超越印度教。
整體造像顯得樸拙，其起源一說出自建築裝飾，一說為石法輪的輪軸雕飾，此類作品為他叻瓦滴時期最有趣的浮雕藝術之一。
