Testo completoBuddhist statues and narrative relieves from Gandhāra share common characteristics thus justifying the designation of “Gandhāran art”. The homogeneity of Gandhāran art is certainly manifest in its material, its subject and its composite nature, yet it is possible to distinguish important iconographic and stylistic variations. This doctoral thesis aims to highlight these variations in order to provide the first identification and characterisation of the various stylistic languages of Gandhāran Buddhist art. The introductory reflections on the geographical, historical and religious contexts within which Gandhāran Buddhist art developed, are followed by prolegomena of the historiographical and theoretical frameworks of the research. These emphasise the need for an appropriate methodology and terminology and the necessity for a corpus of correctly documented pieces on which a stylistic study can be founded. The preliminary inventory of Gandhāran sculptures has identified approximately 5000 pieces of known provenance gathered in an electronic database. The last part focuses on the identification of Gandhāran schools, artistic zones, production centres and workshops and on their characterisation in terms of iconography and form. The review is geographically organised, thus revealing the existing correlation between the stylistic levels and Gandhāran geography and allowing the recognition of various interaction networks. The thesis concludes with an attempt to identify ancient routes, a reassessment of old stylistically based chronologies and a reflection on the geographical normalisation of Buddhist iconographies

Testo completoKarlsson, Klemens. "Face to face with the absent Buddha : The formation of Buddhist Aniconic art". Doctoral thesis, Uppsala University, Department of Theology, 2000. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:uu:diva-421.
Testo completoEarly art in Buddhist cultic sites was characterized by the absence of anthropomorphicimages of the Buddha. The Buddha was instead represented by different signs, like awheel, a tree, a seat and footprints. This study emphasizes the transformation this artunderwent from simple signs to carefully made aniconic compositions representing theBuddha in a narrative context.
Buddhist aniconic art has been explained by a prohibition against images of theBuddha or by a doctrine that made it inappropriate to depict the body of the Buddha.This study rejects such explanations. Likewise, the practice of different meditationalexercises cannot explain this transformation. Instead, it is important to understand thatearly art at Buddhist cultic sites consisted of simple signs belonging to a shared sacredIndian culture. This art reflected a notion of auspiciousness, fertility and abundance.The formation of Buddhist aniconic art was indicated by the connection of these auspi- cious signs with a narrative tradition about the life and teachings of the Buddha.
The study emphasizes the importance Sakyamuni Buddha played in the formation ofBuddhist art. The Buddha was interpreted as an expression of auspiciousness, but hewas also connected with a soteriological perspective. Attention is also focused on thefact that the development of Buddhist art and literature was a gradual and mutualprocess. Furthermore, Buddhist aniconic art presaged the making of anthropomorphicimages of the Buddha. It was not an innovation of motive for the Buddhists when theystarted to make anthropomorphic images of the Buddha. He was already there.

Testo completoThe arrival in China of Buddhism and its images had a determining and long-lasting influence on Chinese thought and artistic expression. This thesis proposes a study of bronze Buddhist sculpture in China from its origins to the 5th century, its development and process of elaboration in the Chinese social and cultural context of the 1st and 2nd centuries as evidenced by recent archeological data, and its evolution towards normative iconography from the 3rd to the 5th century. The oldest sculptures to date discovered in the Sichuan and Yangzi regions were found in tombs, and were an integral part of ancestral local beliefs with which they formed a veritable syncretism for almost a century. It seems that their function was a protective, talismanic, apotropaic, and propitiatory one. Their real religious function emerged around the end of the 3rd century with the appearance of individual gilt bronze sculptures of the Buddha that conformed to iconography as prescribed by the texts. On the basis of the archeological finds of the last 30 years, which have yet to be analyzed, this thesis establishes a classification and a chronological scale for a hundred bronze Buddhist sculptures dating from the 3rd to the 5th centuries, and proposes a stylistic and iconographic study of these sculptures and of their influencing sources. A translation in a Western language and an unprecedented analysis of the votive inscriptions engraved on the sculptures offer, for the first time, a glimpse into the practices, cults, and doctrines of those times

Testo completoBuddhism is one of the religious pillars of Japanese society together with Shintoism. The large Buddhist propagation on Japan depended very much on the importation and the big production of Buddhist statues which were not only representations of the historic Buddha. For about thirteen centuries, the statues style suffered changes that searched for a proper Japanese style and attained its peak on Heian period. This work is a presentation of those stylistics changes and follows a methodology that intends to approach the object \"Japanese Buddhist sculpture\" from all angles, which is to say, it comprehends temples, techniques and raw materials, its relation with Japanese history, Buddhist and Shintoist preachings and image categories.
Astier, Alexandre. "Recherches sur l’iconographie de Kubera". Thesis, Paris 4, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA040064.
Testo completoThis thesis is a study of the images of god Kubera (also called Vaiśravaṇa or Jambhala) in South Asia, from their origin (c. 150 B.C.) to the 12th century. In Hinduism, Kubera is mainly the Lord of the yakṣa, the Lord of Riches and the guardian (lokapāla) of the north. Kubera has also been included with the minor divinities of Buddhism and Jainism. The aim of this work is to present the features of Kubera’s character that can be found in literature and to study the chronological evolution of his iconography. This thesis seeks to prove that Kubera’s personality is more complex and richer than generally admitted, and that his images are more varied than one might think. In addition to his traditional roles, Kubera in Hinduism is strongly linked to sovereignty. He is often represented in association with Gaṇeśa and goddess Lakṣmī. His personified “treasures” (nidhi), the Conch-Shell and the Lotus, decorate numerous temples. Kubera’s image is particularly complex in Gandharan art (1st to 3rd centuries A.D.) where his iconography is the result of the fusion of his traditional functions with Pāñcika (Kubera’s general in chief and Hāritī’s husband), Iranian god Pharro and Greco-Roman god Hermes/Mercury. In Buddhist art, Kubera can be a protector of the Buddha and His Law, whereas in Jainism, he has given rise to most images of the guardians in charge of protecting the twenty-four Jinas

Testo completoImages of Khmer Buddha executed between the 13th and c. 16th CE demonstrate specific religious practice, continuity of the Angkorian tradition, and artistic exchange with bordering countries. Together, they also reveal transformations in the form, definition and role of Buddhist sculpture in Cambodia. An annotated corpus of 238 Buddha images in stone, wood, and bronze from several museum and private collections, and in situ, assist in the reconstruction of changes to artistic production in the Khmer kingdom during this period. The principal results of this work provide new interpretations about the Ayutthyan invasion and occupation at Angkor, and resettlement of the Angkorian political centre in the Quatre Bras region
Hein, Jean-Claude. "Le portrait japonais du VIIIe au XVIe siècle. Études des représentations artistiques et des sources historiques". Thesis, Paris 4, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009PA040276.
Testo completoHow can one define these paintings and sculptures in the round that make up Japanese portraits of monks? Through their specific form that derives from a continental prototype which has never been reappraised and which remained stable except for short periods of time. Such a consistency results from a strong influence of China, and from the use of iconographic models (zuzō). Furthermore, copying a work of art has never been undervalued. Portraits are also images which benefit the sect that produces them. By providing an image or representation that never decays, they bear testimony to a monk's holiness, even buddhahood. Lastly, the Zen portraits (chinzō) are often seen as a kind of certification; however, this function seems quite rare. Group portraits, scrolls (emaki) and literature also describe people in their own way, allowing comparison with portraits. Portraiture could have followed its own path; it has preferred to borrow from holy images: deities, maṇḍala and jātaka illustrations

Testo completoThis dissertation provides a detailed study of a particular representation of the Buddha, in which he sits on a prominent throne, i.e. a bhadrapīṭha or bhadrāsana, in a majestic posture with two legs pendant, that is, in bhadrāsana or the “auspicious pose.” This pendant-legged imagery, generally associated with the throne, has been found widely depicted in South, East, and Southeast Asian art and is, as a rule, mostly associated with kingship, fertility, and even divinity. The results of this iconological examination have wide implications for understanding the origins, spread, and development of Buddhist art in those lands, particularly during the first millennium CE

This paper will focus on the Taiwanese artist Yuyu Yang’ sculptures. Through out his forty years career, Buddhist sculptures were his major works. Hence I will focus mainly on his Buddhist images. Stylistic speaking his works were prolific and innovative. During his studies, he visited the Yungang Buddhist Cave and was stunned by the massive Buddhist images. This experience became a turning point in his artistic career and led him in the production of Buddhist images. Yuyu Yang’s works can be divided into three forms : the Prajna or Emptiness abstract form, the devotional images form and the Zen lifescape form. In Taiwanese Buddhist art history, Yuyu Yang’s works played an important role in connecting the past tradition and inspired future artist in that his works began with the inspiration of Northern Wei period and later through his Buddhist belief he incorporated the Buddhist thought and ideals and thus led through his innovation in his artistic creations.

The researcher,who grew up in a family with the atmosphere full of Buddhism,gradusted from a college of Buddhism and did a few researches about The Tipitaka and dvadasanga Buddha Vacana. The researcher has some contacts with Buddhist statue colored drawing. Presently,the researcher has great interest of the Buddhist sculptures which is from the painyed sculptures and the artistic creation of stones reliefs in all the past dynasties till the Buddhist sculptures of Han Dynasty in modern times. As a result of the artistic creation of Buddhist sculptures which has deficiencies in the addition of innovative materials,the researcher plans to integrate the creation of innovative materials of Buddhist sculptures with the development of Buddhist sculptures. Therefore, this crratoin can be divided into two parts.(1)The spiritual investigation of the Buddhist sculptor.(2)The application of the materials which are used in the creating process of the creation of Buddhist sculptures.It promotes the renewal in the materials of the creation of Buddhost sculpture,and contributes to the propagation of Buddhism.

In 2011, Tokyo National Museum held an exhibition entitled “BUDDHA—The Story in Manga and Art,” in which the original drawings of the manga Buddha by Tezuka Osamu (1928-1989) were juxtaposed with some Buddhist sculptures. It inspired me to think about the possibility of comparing manga with Buddhist sculptures and other art works. In fact, in addition to this work, Tezuka also depicted many images of Buddhist sculptures during his four-decade career. These images spanned different creative periods, appeared in different subjects, and were presented in diverse styles. It indicates that the images of Buddhist sculptures in Tezuka’s works are so significant that they are worth more discussion. This thesis collects as many as possible the images of Buddhist sculptures in Tezuka’s manga and discusses the following issues: the changing in style, the sources of these images, and the characteristics of Tezuka’s Buddhist sculptural images. The style of Tezuka’s Buddhist sculptural images changes in different periods. It is simple and flat at first, and becomes elaborate and realistic. Then, in the third stage, it is simple and clear. During the period from the late 1960s to the early 1970s, Tezuka’s works are most realistic, exquisite and dramatic, and the Buddhist images were depicted as paintings rather than ordinary manga. The style of this period is very special in Tezuka’s whole creative career. From the late 1960s, Tezuka began to include famous Buddhist sculptures into his manga. By comparing a lot of plates from Japanese text books and art historical books, I found that Tezuka often picked Buddhist sculptures that are assigned as National Treasures or Important Cultural Properties. These images are most famous and likely to be familiar to the Japanese public. It is possible that the readers could recognize the images quickly and feel close to them. By this way, Tezuka arouse reader’s reading interest and curiosity. The stylistic features of Tezuka’s Buddhist sculptural images from the late 1960s to the early 1970s are most attractive. We find the stylistic source from “gekiga” trend which rose in the late 1950s. Tezuka’s Buddhist sculptural images had a lot in common with those of Mizuki Shigeru (1922- ). When the mainstream of the manga circles was leaded by new trends, Tezuka adopted the popular styles actively and responded with competitive consciousness rather than falling behind too long. In this period, Tezuka published in the media that did not take commercial value for the first concern, and he could create in higher experimental and artistic form. This showed that Tezuka was eager to raise manga to artistic level. This thesis points out four characteristics of Tezuka’s Buddhist sculptural images: first, Tezuka often used cinematic devices in terms of changing viewpoints and zooming. Second, he frequently chose famous Buddhist Sculptures assigned as National Treasures or Important Cultural Properties of Japan. Third, he integrated intellectual contents into manga, but the pictorial images were still the main focus. Fourth, he often conveyed ideas of strong critical and enlightening senses and this indicates that he values the educational function of manga. This thesis considers that even though Tezuka learned from gekiga, he chose what he wanted rather than fully accepting the style in vogue. He integrated desirable parts into his works, and presented as what with Tezuka’s own features.

The Tibetan Buddhist art made at the imperial court in the Yongle period (1402-1424) is a unique chapter of Ming dynasty. Especially the numerous gilded Buddhist bronze sculptures are the representative works of Tibetan Buddhist art of Ming court. These Buddhist bronze sculptures are often known as ‘the Yongle bronzes,’ due to six characters inscription on the pedestals which indicate the sculptures were made in the Yongle period. In this thesis, the influences of Tibetan Buddhist art on the Yongle bronzes, due to the communicating between the Ming court and Tibet, are discussed in three parts from historical documents, the style analysis to the iconographic study. According to historical documents, the Yongle emperor continued the policy of bestowing honorary titles to the Tibetan Buddhist monks from his father Hongwu emperor. In addition, he invited the three important Tibetan monks, De-bzhin-gshegs-pa, Kun-dga’bkra-shis, and Sakya Ye-shes, to visit China and give them the greatest title ‘the kings of dharma.’ The Yongle emperor not only presented them lots of treasures, but also accepted the abhiseka from these Tibetan lamas. The accepting of the abhiseka and the preface of the Tibetan tantra scriptures written by the Yongle emperor show the enthusiasm and faith for the Tibetan Buddhism. Under the circumstance, the Ming court started producing Tibetan Buddhist artworks, including the Yongle bronzes. By observing the style, we may discover the Yongle bronzes are greatly different from the Tibetan Buddhist sculptures in Yuan dynasty. From the facial expression, the structure of body and to design of adornment, the Yongle bronzes show stronger connection to the style of central Tibet in twelfth to fourteenth century. Otherwise, the Buddhist texts and illustrations in the book “諸佛菩薩妙相名號經咒” which was transmitted by De-bzhin-gshegs-pa is a great example to demonstrate the influence of the kings of dharma from the central Tibet. Plenty of Yongle bronzes are highly similar to the deity image in this book. It shows that the kings of dharma played important roles in the making of the Yongle bronzes. Not to mention the historical records also prove that the kings of dharma from the central Tibet have tributed Buddhist sculptures to the Ming court several times. In summary, the existence of the Tibetan Buddhist art at the Yongle court was entailed by constant cultural exchanges between the Ming and central Tibet, such as those religious leaders'' visit to the Ming court made a great influence on the Yongle bronzes. The significance of Yongle bronzes are not only representing the most sophisticated artworks in this genre but also embodying the cultural products developed by these two distant areas.

The Guanzhong(關中) plain in Shaanxi(陜西) province is one of the oldest and most significant political, cultural, and religious centers. By the late 4th century and early 5th century, Chang’an(長安) was an important center in the dissemination of Buddhism and foreign-style Buddhist images. However, from 416 to 533, was one of eclipse for Chang’an, for it was neither a political capital nor a religious center. The Buddhist persecution in 444 was a major setback to Chang’an, but Taoism was flourished under the strong support of the North Wei courts. Nevertheless, the solid foundation established by the past period, for the Buddhism was deeply popular in Gunazhong, so Chang’an Buddhism could revived fast. The large numbers of Buddhist sculptures in the North Wei is evidence of Chang’an Buddhism flourishing. Under the influence of Buddhist art, Taoist sculptures appeared in the late 5th century, centralized around the middle part of Guanzhong where the Way of the New Celestial Masters(新天師道) prevailed. According to Guanzhong sculpture’s style analysis, its development is presented in three periods. The first period (ca. 426-470) still retained the strong Indian and Central Asian elements, but also saw Han elements; meanwhile, Chang’an Buddhist art continued to influence Yungang(雲岡). During the second period (ca. 471-500), the Guanzhong style was gradually mature, the curvilinear pattern as the most typical style. While Guanzhong lost its influence, on the contrary influenced by Yungang and Longmen(龍門). During the third period (ca. 501-534), the numbers of sculptures increased precipitously. In these images, human forms, Bodhisattva dress, curvilinear pattern and four-side stele all display a unique regional style. The Taoist images also developed own style to distinguish from Buddhist images, the Taoist deity wears a tall hat and Chinese robe with long sleeves, takes a fan and grows a beard. By the third decade of 6th century, the Guanzhong style was fully mature. In terms of subject, early Guanzhong images show a close connection to those of India, Buddhabiographies, Jataka tales and cross-foot Maitreya for example. Meanwhile, the subject like Duobao(多寶) Buddha, Vimalakīrti, fifty-three Buddha and thirty-five Buddha those were created by Chinese. The Taoist image mostly is Laojun(老君), Tianzun(天尊) and Taishundaojun(太上道君) appeared later was influence by the Southern Linbao(靈寶派) Taoism.In addition, the Buddhist-Taoist steles reflect the characteristics of the Guanzhong the plebeian beliefs, their sponsors both were Buddhist and Taoist, they clearly realized their own religious attributes. The goal of the two group actually reveals no differentiation, for they reach the same end only using different methods.

During the Northern Wei dynasty (A.D. 386-534), Chinese bronze Buddhist sculpture is extremely prevalent. Both city people and country people may preserve or pay obeisance in the bronze Buddhist sculptures at their home. Its distribution and production are affected by the political situations, economic conditions, and social organizations. As a background for the following study it is necessary to remember some events, especially of the unification of northern China in 439, deporting craftsmen from Hebei(河北) to Datong(大同), Emperor Tai-Wu’s (太武帝, 424-452) destroying Buddhism, Emperor Wen-Cheng’s (文成帝, 440–465) restoring Buddhism, and moving the capital from Datong to Luoyang (洛陽). These events occur in the aftermath of the tremendous religious developments that take place in Chinese Buddhism art during the fifth century. The main research object of my thesis is the “small” bronze Buddhist sculpture in the Northern Wei Dynasty. The task of establishing the most complete understanding of its art during this period necessarily depends upon a comprehensive approach that utilizes historical conditions, stylistic analysis, spatial analysis, iconography analysis, and inscription research. Most of its sponsors are just a single common person, and a few other sponsors are the close relatives, monks, and nuns. It is mostly smaller than 30 centimeters high. Therefore, it is different from the bronze sculptures that set in some temples or other public place, and it might be for personal use. It is the pourpose of my thesis to demonstrate what a high popularity for small Buddhist sculptures among personal sponsors are. According to bronze sculpture’s style analysis, its development is presented in four periods: Stage I, ca. A.D. 386- ca. 476; Stage II, ca. 477- ca. 491; Stage III, ca. 492- ca. 512; and Stage IV, ca. 513- ca. 534. The period from around 452 until 476, there are some sculptures which appear to have developed stylistically beyond the previous modes. Stage II is probably the first fully developed period. Stage III is transitional period in the formation of the traditional Han-style bronze sculpture. The next major achievement in manufacturing technology and innovative depiction after Stage II is Stage IV. The sculptures during Stage IV is fully cross the boundary and can be set squarely within traditional Han-style lineage. In regard to its spatial analysis, the sculptures from Hebei province (河北省) reflect elaborate and sophisticated taste. Its Stage II and Stage IV both deserve to be recognized as major representative. Otherwise, the sculptures from Shantung province (山東省) during the Taihe period (太和, 477-499) become alive in its development, and owing to Shantung’s distinctive regional position, there are some sculptures which appear the innovative characteristics. During the Stage IV, some sculptures from Shantung have developed into a genuinely mature regional style. Shantung’s Stage IV can rightly be called the major typical period. Exclusive of Hebei and Shantung, bronze sculptures during this period are seldom left in northern China. Even so, we still can collect and identify a few bronze sculptures from Xingshi (陝西), Gansu (甘肅), and Ningxia (寧夏) and the sculptures represent the vivially regional characteristics. Furthermore, in regard to iconography analysis, according to my statistics, the two most popular figures are Avalokiteśvara (觀世音) and Prabhūtaratna (多寶佛). Maitreya (彌勒) is a kind of the influential Buddhism figure. However, few bronze sculptures are inscribed with Śākyamuni (釋迦牟尼) and Amitāyus (無量壽佛). A study of these sculptures reveals the complex variations within the iconography and iconology of small bronze sculptures themselves. The principles of Buddhist iconography for bronze sculptures are not extremely rigid. The brief inscriptions on the bronze sculptures seldom contain profound Buddhist doctione and deep truth. Besides, because of its complicated manufacturing process and technology, the production of bronze sculptures may depend on skilled craftmen to employ a number of distinct casting processes. Therefore, if people prefer to a bronze sculpture, the handmake store will trade at them. The bronze sculptures getting more and more popular during the Northern Wei dynasty, it seems that these riligious stuff increasingly becomes marketed commodities. The bronze sculptures themselves become commodities to be sold and bought and we can be considered this subject to commodification in context. Otherwise, because some bronze sculptures during this period are sold after an indefinitely long period of time, we can not be completely convinced that the time on its inscription can be seem as the time that bronze sculptures have been manufactured.

Tibetan Buddhist sculptural arts began developing alongside Tibetan Buddhism starting in the early seventh century. This art was influenced by Buddhist culture in such peripheral areas as India, Nepal, and China, and constantly absorbing indigenous Tibetan beliefs and popular aesthetic concepts, which caused it to evolve into a unique form of Buddhist craftsmanship. Many kinds of Tibetan Buddhist statues were made, and were often very complex and elaborate in form. As a result, both Tibetan Buddhist painting and sculpture became spectacular art forms. While early Tibetan Buddhist images tended to be carved from stone or made from clay, the production of copper-gold alloy statues gradually entered Tibet from other areas. The making of copper-gold alloy Buddha statues gradually developed in Tibet through the 12th and 13th centuries, which was the Later Propagation Period of Tibetan Buddhism, and copper-gold alloy Buddha statues eventually occupied an important status in Tibetan temple culture. These statues combined exquisite metalworking skill with a unique aesthetic outlook, and this art became one of Tibet''s most representative traditional crafts and a key element of the Tibetan cultural heritage. While the ten-year Cultural Revolution caused the making of Buddhist statues within Tibet to be interrupted, the Tibetan government in exile, after fleeing to India in 1959, established the Norbulingka Institute, which included thangka, wood carving, metal forging, hammering, and casting, and embroidery workshops. The craftsmen who had followed the Dalai Lama into exile, and thus avoided persecution during the Cultural Revolution, maintained the transmission of traditional Tibetan crafts outside of Tibet, and trained new generations of Tibetans in traditional skills that had once faced extinction. The production of fine copper-gold alloy Buddha statues depends on the proficiency of the craftsmen with the characteristics of copper metal and forging and casting techniques, and is also inseparably connected with painstaking attention to the Buddha statues'' dimensions, proportions, and expression. Research on the making of copper-gold alloy Buddha statues must present the essential nature of this craft from a technical perspective, and also analyze its evolution and influences in light of their cultural and historical background. At present, most studies of Tibetan Buddhist copper-gold alloy Buddha statues have been limited to research on the literature, or consisted of technical inferences and stylistic analysis concerning this art in India and Nepal, etc. Unfortunately, has been a lack of research specifically addressing production techniques used is this richly-expressive form of craftsmanship. Taking folklore theory as its foundation, this study uses historical research methods to investigate the development and evolution of Tibetan Buddhist statue craftsmanship, Buddhist statue production under the Tibetan government in exile, and the skills transmission system among craftsmen making copper-gold alloy Buddha statues. At the same time, this study also discusses developmental changes in statue dimensions and proportions. A field investigation is further employed to observe the production of copper-gold alloy Buddha statues in a workshop run by the government in exile, including the taking of on-site photographs and records of tools, materials, techniques, and procedures. Apart from making a detailed record on actual operations and performing analysis, the study also discusses the scope of sales and the transmission of skills. Interviews with senior craftsmen and their apprentices provide an in-depth understanding of how the skills used in the production of copper-gold alloy Buddha statues are passed on. The information gained in this way can fill gaps in the literature and confirm the results of field surveys and other research, and can shed light on the historical background of senior craftsmen and their lines of transmission. Apart from performing a thorough overview of this traditional Tibetan craft, this study can also make a significant contribution to the protection of intangible cultural assets. It was found that in the process of passing on traditional craftsmanship in the copper-gold alloy Buddha statue workshop at the Norbulingka Institute, apart from transmitting crafts techniques, the transmission of the spirit of craftsmanship has been a key factor. The masters and their apprentices work together like fathers and sons, and the spirit of craftsmanship is transmitted imperceptibly and intangibly. This spirit of craftsmanship is something that modern education cannot effectively impart, and the sense of responsibility for the transmission of culture that accompanies the spirit of craftsmanship is the key to the continued propagation of traditional crafts. This line of reasoning can provide us with insights concerning the transmission of traditional crafts.

During the latest two decades, there were continually discovery of various kinds of Buddhist stone statues and steles of the sixth century around Qingzhou, the middle region of Shangdon Province. The discovered objects indicate a very unique style that harmoniously unifies the strength and elegance. Initially, this paper exams the geographical boundary of Qingzhou region in the middle sixth century according to the official history records, “Wei shu” and “Suei shu”, and the inscriptions on the excavated steles. Based on the former research, the author has focused on the materials excavated from Qingzhou and the sites nearby including Boxing, Guangrao, Chuangyi, Linchu, Linqu, Gaoqing, Changchio, Wudi, Hueimin, Yangxin, Zhuzheng. Through the comparison of the statues and steles from different sites, the distinctions of the forms, techniques and decorations could be revealed, so that the conclusion for the characteristics of Qingzhou statues can be made. Furthermore, the paper detailed analyzes the statues and then classifies them into several types. In order to thoroughly analyze the causes of the unique style of Qingzhou statues, the author further probes the social structure of the sixth century, which derives into two aspects as following: Primarily, the strong and full figure had become a new and general principle of Northern Qi statues, which completely replaced the original skinny and fragile style of Eastern Wei. Further, the paper has cited a rather large amount of records in the official history, and indicates the ideology of Northern Qi rejecting and excluding the Han culture. Additionally, in order to oppose and eliminate the Han culture, the aristocracy enthusiastically imported the fashion from the West Region instead and it had entirely changed the workmanship in the early sixth century. Secondarily, the complicated and luxurious decorative way of Qingzhou is rarely seen in other regions in Northern Qi. It might be caused by its specific historical background. According to the official history records, Qingzhou was long dominated by the higher Han families that showed deep influence on Han culture. Besides, geographical region of Qingzhou was a shaped plain of long in north and south and narrow in east and west, and the ocean is just nearby which brought Qingzhou the convenience and benefits of marine transit making it no difficulties to contact the outside world. Under the influences of the two aspects mentioned above, the unique style that is strong and full but delicate and exquisite as well finally appeared in the sixth century and impressed the people in this post-modern time.
