摘要
北朝菩萨像莲花冠的造型有两类:其一为整个莲花造型的宝冠,其二为以莲花瓣或是莲蕾为装饰组合元素的宝冠.从莲花冠的出现时间与地域范围来看,正好处于北魏佛教造像中国化的重要时期.本文认为北朝菩萨像莲花冠是在接受与改造具有印度、西域式三面圆盘宝冠的基础上,形成的中国式莲花宝冠.笔者认为,莲花冠在北魏晚期流行的原因,与当时的社会背景、宗教信仰、政治文化等因素密切相关.
Abstract
The design of lotus crowns featured in the Bodhisattva statues of the Northern Dynasties can be distinctly classified into two primary categories:firstly,those crowns that are exclusively fashioned in the likeness of a lotus flower;secondly,those that incorporate lotus petals or buds as integral decorative com-ponents.When examined within the context of their temporal and geographical emergence,it coincided with the significant period of the Sinicization of Northern Wei Buddhist sculptures.This paper holds that the lotus crown observed in the Bodhisattva statues of the Northern Dynasties evolved from the assimilation and subsequent transformation of the three-sided disc crowns originating from India and the Western regions,into a distinctly Chinese-styled lotus crown.The author maintains that the prevalence of the lotus crown during the late Northern Wei period is strongly implicated in the societal backdrop,religious convictions,and politi-cal ethos of that era.
