菩萨身体躯干石像

ca. 5th century
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 235
在四世纪至五世纪，菩萨造像成为大乘佛教（即盛行于印度北部的佛教）信仰中的重要部分。鉴于这些入世菩萨日益受到欢迎，健驮罗地区的寺院请工匠制作了大型菩萨造像，这些菩萨是佛教慈悲心的体现。观音崇拜更是这种情绪的最高表达形式。这件大型石刻菩萨躯干原属于一尊约十英尺高的石雕，可能来自萨里拔洛寺庙，是从那一时期存留至今的惊人杰作。精心雕琢的菩萨像披着和尚的僧衣，折射出曾与西方的古希腊接触过的残存记忆。

讲解员：这尊雕塑的躯干强健有力，肌肉线条分明，在展厅里的雕像中显得与众不同。它是佛教中的“菩萨”：一个已经达到灵性完美但放弃进入极乐涅槃境界的神。菩萨选择留在人世，帮助其他众生获得解脱。

一般来说，南亚和东南亚的雕塑不太注重肌肉线条和服装，但这尊雕塑造型自然，衣服有丰富的层次，可见古希腊罗马雕塑的影子。这种西方古典影响与佛教图像的融合是古代犍陀罗王国艺术的标志。犍陀罗包含今天的阿富汗和巴基斯坦部分地区。在亚历山大大帝于公元前 4 世纪东征进入时，犍陀罗已经是东西方文明的交叉口。两个世纪后，来自东方的游牧部落赶走希腊人，建立贵霜帝国，该帝国的统治者后改信佛教。但犍陀罗的多元文化传统并未衰退。犍陀罗位于连接中国和爱琴海的主要贸易路线上。罗马元老所穿的长袍便由犍陀罗出口的印度棉制成。
