莫高窟第76窟八塔变中三佛图像辨析

Differentiation and analyzing the image of the Three-Buddhasin the illustrations to the Eight Pagoda inside Cave 76 Mogao Grottoes

对莫高窟第76窟八塔变相中第三初转法轮塔、第五给孤独园塔中的三佛图像,学界有"三身佛"和"千佛化现"两种认识,本文通过对笈多朝至波罗朝时期相关造像题材的比较研究,认为二塔中三佛图像表现的都是"舍卫城神变千佛化现"的题材内容。

The image of the Three-Buddhas represented in the Buddha＇s first preaching scene on the third and the Jetavananathapin-dikarama scene in the fifth to the Eight Pagoda Illustrations are commonly known as either Trikaya＂The threefold body of Buddha＂or＂Transformation of a Thousand Buddhas＂in the academic circle.Based on a comparative study of the relevant icon themes from Gupta to Pala dynasties,this article pointed out that the Three-Buddhas was a presentation to the theme of＂the Great Miracle at Cravasti＂.
