甘肃安西榆林窟西夏后期石窟装饰及其与宋《营造法式》之关系初探(上)

Preliminary research on the decorative motifs in the Later Xi Xia period in the Yulin Grottoes and their relationship with the 12^(th) century text,Yingzaofashi. Part Ⅰ

榆林窟的西夏后期洞窟装饰在多元文化融合的基础上,在很大程度上保留了北宋时期中原地区的装饰特色,是可以与《营造法式》装饰纹样相互印证的珍贵实例。结合《营造法式》的记载,对这部分装饰纹样进行整理和分析,对这一时期的装饰艺术研究有着重要的意义。本文在实地调查的基础上,试对榆林窟3个后期西夏洞窟(第2、3、10窟)的装饰纹样进行初步分析,并将其与《营造法式》进行比较。

As the product of multicultural syncretism, the decoration of the caves of the later Xi Xia Dynasty in the Yulin Grottoes, Anxi Prefecture, mainly preserved the same character as that of the Central Plains in the Northern Song Dynasty. The decorative patterns are valuable surviving examples for comparison with those in the Yingzaofashi (Handbook of Criteria for Construction) of the 12th century. Through on-site investigation of three later caves at Yulin (Caves 2, 3 and 10), this paper identifies and compares the decorative motifs from the late Xi Xia Dynasty with those recorded in Yingzaofashi.
