Buddhist Statues in China
中国的佛像
By the Sui and Tang dynasties, Chinese Buddhist art had completed its process of sinification. Many Buddhist statues were produced with the bearing of a dignified scholar. Typical of these is the Buddha Rocana in theFengxian Temple at Longmen. This large statue of Buddha, dressed in Chinese-style kasaya with a round neck, looks dignified and kind-hearted and has an elegant and plump face with eyes expressing calm and insight. This fully expresses the Confucian aesthetic ideal of seeking a unity of internal and external qualities and virtue and beauty.
到了隋唐时期,中国佛教艺术完成了中国化的过程。许多佛像被学者制作传承。其中典型的是在奉先寺的龙门的佛卢舍那。这个大佛像,穿着中国式圆领袈裟,看起来端庄善良,具有优雅而丰满的脸眼表示冷静和洞察力。这充分表达了儒家思想寻求内部和外部的美德和善良。
