The Yungang Grottoes were excavated in the Northern Wei Dynasty,and constructed by the combination of stone carving and mural painting,with various artistic forms.Due to the influence of both natural and human factors,the painting layers of the stone carvings had fallen off and discolored,showing a complex appearance.On the basis of previous studies on the color paint-ing in Yungang Grottoes,this paper focuses on the color painting halo of Buddhism statues in the Northern Wei Dynasty.In this pa-per,the backlight of the statue is divided into four regions to investigate the color-painted remains,compared with the grotto carv-ings and mural painting styles on the Yungang and other grotto-relics along the Silk Roads,so as to give the chronological evidence for the color painting remains,as well as to reveal the colorful original of the Yungang Grottoes.
