Walking Buddha

Bronze

佛行走像

泰國

此銅雕為泰國蘭納泰時期(Lanna Thai,1259~1558)遺品。此時期的佛行走像很可能受到素可泰時期(1238~1438)佛教美術影響。一般佛行走像多表現經行中的釋迦牟尼佛,該像卻是刻劃佛足踏過去三佛均曾走過,並留下腳印的同一處。
 此像肉髻高聳,呈錐形,髻頂飾寶珠,螺髮稠密,兩眼專注於腳下。身體微向前傾,雙手於身側自然擺動,重心落在右腳,左腳後伸,腳跟提起。右足踏在三個不同大小、重疊的方形腳印上,其中最大者與台座平面同長寬。此重疊足印從大至小,是表現過去三佛和釋迦牟尼佛的體型依次漸小的概念,以排於末端的釋迦牟尼佛身形最小。
