Yotkan: Heavenly Musicians
Fired clay
伎樂天
新疆維吾爾自治區和田縣巴格其鎮約特干遺址出土
新疆維吾爾自治區和田縣巴格其鎮約特干遺址出土。二十世紀初英國人斯坦因於此遺址購得，推測原為寺院建築裝飾的局部。
殘片最上方隱約可見大象與人物雙腿，下緣有扭帶狀橫柱，上飾條形聯珠紋。伎樂天位於兩座連拱圓券門內，二圓券門間以希臘科林斯式（Corinthian）的圓矮柱區隔，牆面上飾蓮花。伎樂天均深目高鼻，具胡人相貌特徵。圖左側伎樂天卷髮披肩，頭側向右，雙手持鈸；右側伎樂天束髮帶，髮盤於頂，頭向左轉，吹奏橫笛。以貼塑手法表現，造型帶有濃厚犍陀羅藝術風格，細膩精巧，主題饒富趣味。
