康達哈羅司祭官本生圖

泰國

此圖為泰國大城時期(Ayutthaya,1350~1767)阿毗達磨寫經的插圖之一。全經的插圖題材均出自佛本生故事,在同時代的阿毗達磨寫經中,以其畫風顯得最自由、表現力最強。
 康達哈羅司祭官本生事見南傳《本生經》第五四二則,描繪佛陀於過去世曾為波羅奈國王子,名旃陀鳩摩羅,因受父王器重和人民愛戴,而招司祭官康達哈羅妒恨,設計以其祭天,帝釋天知悉後下凡中斷祭禮並懲惡揚善。
 畫面中央上方旃陀鳩摩羅安然坐於祭台上,其旁全身碧綠的帝釋天手持金錘將華蓋打斷。下方二人驚懼跌倒,表現出祭禮陷入一片混亂的情況。圖中人物姿態生動自然,線條流暢,局部貼金,設色明快。
 寫經始於印度西元前一至二世紀,以梵語書寫佛教經、律、論,便於弘傳及流通,日後除了文字外,亦附有插圖。泰國佛教的經書插圖最早出現在大城時期,多以佛傳或本生故事為題材。
