四川丹棱鸡公山石窟造像

Mt. Jigong Grotto in Danleng,Sichuan

鸡公山石窟只有一个洞窟,保存完整,内容丰富,主要内容有会昌五年(845)题记;十六观;骑狮文殊;骑象普贤;一佛五十菩萨等,是佛教图像学研究的重要资料,本文将对该石窟进行较详细的介绍。

Jigongshan Grotto has only one well-preserved cave, but the latter is rich in contents, including an inscription dated in the fifth year of Huichang (845). The subjects provide valuable data for the study of Buddhist images: they include the 16 Meditations of Queen Vaidehī, Majus'rī Bodhisattva riding on a lion; Samantabhadra Bodhisattva riding on an elephant; and the Buddha accompanied by fifty Bodhisattvas. This report offers detailed information based on a thorough investigation of the site.
