月氏民族的美术嬗变

On the Development of Fine Arts of Rouzhi Minority

月氏民族早期游牧在以东天山巴里坤草原为中心的区域,"双马神"岩画、云纹彩陶和大角羊铜雕是其代表性美术品。前贵霜时代月氏人游牧在阿姆河上游的吐火罗斯坦,"黄金之丘"出土的美术品融合了草原文化、海洋文化和农耕文化等多种文化元素。丝绸之路的开通和贵霜帝国的统一,为犍陀罗佛教美术的繁荣与传播创造了历史机遇,月氏美术最终融会于犍陀罗佛教美术的巨流。

The representative artworks of the Rouzhi Minority,which nomadized on the Barkol prairie to the east of Mount Tianshan in ancient times,were cliff painting"Double-horses God",ancient painted pottery featured by moire fringe and copper sculpture"Bighorn Sheep".In the Kushan Empire,the Rouzhi Minority lived in Tokharistan along the Amu Darya River,where"the Golden Hill"was discovered and its artworks integrated different cultural elements such as prairie culture,marine culture and farming culture.The opening up of Silk Road and the unification of the Kushan Empire provided a historical opportunity for prosperous developing and wide spreading the Gandhara Buddhist art.As a consequence,Rouzhi arts were merged into the great Gandhara Buddhist art.
