试析云冈第9、10双窟的因缘故事画

Analysis of the Nidāna Stories Images in No.9&10 Double Caves of Yungang Grottoes

云冈第9、10双窟是云冈第二期石窟中的精彩之作,双窟中存在大量的因缘故事题材图像,这些图像内容的出现并不是随意的拼凑,有着更为深层的历史原因和宗教原因,同时这些内容也是世俗政治的力量对佛教石窟造像产生重要影响的具体反映。虽然9、10双窟具体开凿时间及其性质仍有争论,但是通过对关于9、10双窟的探讨进行简单梳理,试图结合历史背景对窟内故事画进行简要解读。

The No.9&10 double caves in the second period of Yungang Grottoes are wonderful works, and there are a large number of Nidāna Stories images in the double grottoes. The appearance of these image contents is not random patchwork, with underlying historical and religious causes, and these contents are also a concrete reflection of the significant influence of political forces on the creation of Buddhist grottoes in the secular world. Although there are still disputes about the time of construction and nature of the No.9&10 double caves, based on the combing of related studies, the author tries to understand the Nidāna Stories images under historical background.
