Buddha Shakyamuni and Adorants on Mount Meru
This masterpiece of Indian metal sculpture is one of the most sumptuous Buddhist altarpieces to have survived from Kashmir. Buddha Shakyamuni sits in the meditation posture on a thick cushion covered with lavish carpets. Beneath him is a rocky formation divided into three realms—animal, human and celestial—from bottom to top. The probable intent is to represent the historical Buddha as a transcendental figure seated on the cosmic mountain Meru, which is considered to be the center of the universe.
须弥山释迦牟尼佛与礼敬众
这件印度金属雕塑的杰作，是克什米尔地区现存最为华美的佛教供像之一。释迦牟尼佛以禅定姿端坐于厚实的敷垫之上，垫上覆以华丽的氎毯。其下为层叠的岩岫构造，自下而上分为三界——畜生界、人间界、天界。此布局意在以超越性的形象表现佛陀，坐于被视为宇宙中心的须弥山上。
