We made the best use of a recent opportunity to make as detailed photographic and descriptive records as possible.\n     The construction of the disk and the lotus pedestal, and dimensions of their parts, are as shown in Pl. II and Fig. 1 (page 12). The object consists of a disk, 29.2cm. in diameter on its outside face with two dhâraṇî of the Buddha Amitābha written in Brāhmi characters, and a lotus pedestal supporting the disk. The lotus pedestal consists of four parts : the conical berry and the uke-bana (rows of petals spreading upward) surrounding it; the kaeri-bana (rows of everted petals) below them; and the two bases, upper and lower. Their largest diameters are : the uke-bana, 33.5 cm. ; the kaeri-bana, 27.2 cm. ; the upper base (upper kamachi), 32. 1 cm. ; and the lower base (lower kamachi), 39. 7 cm. At the center of the lower kamachi stands a peg which goes through holes into upper kamachi and kaeri-bana and up into the mortise on the bottom of the berry. The total height of the pedestal from the base to the top of the berry is approximately 20.2cm. The disk (called gachirin or “moon disk” in Buddhism) placed on the berry is 2.2 cm. in thickness. It is coated all over with white kaolin over which the Brāhmi characters are inscribed in Chinese ink. The characters show two dhâraṇî of Amitābha : one, shorter, at the center, and the other, longer, surrounding it. These inscriptions and the meaning of the “Moon-disk” will be discussed in greater detail by Mr. TAKATA Osamu in the next issue of this magazine.\n     The disk has two iron pins projecting from its bottom, which are struck into the berry to fix the disk. The surface of the berry, although thus concealed under the disk, is covered with a coating of malachite of bright green, over which the ovaries are painted in a light-brown organic pigment (Figs. 2 & 3). The sides of the berry are coated with a dark orange colour (red lead), and have patterns of pistils painted in white (kaolin). Thirty spreading petals (uke-bana) enclose the berry in three horizontal rows, each row consisting of ten. The petals are nailed on the lower portion of the berry. The inner surfaces of the petals are painted in red (vermilion), while their outer surfaces are painted in red at their centers gradating into pink (blending of vermilion and kaolin) towards their rims. Along their rims are fixed strips of gold leaf about 1 mm. wide, which add to their decorative effect (Pl. I, Figs. 4–6). Contrasting with the monochromatic gradation on the uke-band, the everted petals, (kaeri-bana) below them, are painted in polychrome “rainbow colouring”, its prevailing colours being blue and green in contrast with the red and orange of the upper parts (the uke-bana and the berry). The kaeri-bana are carved out of a single flat block of wood. The kaeri-bana block has ten petals, namely five in a row and five others partly appearing below between them.\n     These colour-painted patterns are shown by Pl. I-b and Fig. 9. The upper petals are painted in blue (azurite) towards the edge and red (red lead and vermilion) towards the center; the lower petals are coloured green (malachite) towards the edge and purple (a blending of vermilion and indigo) towards the center, within the petals are painted floral patterns also in combinations of blue-and-red and green-and-purple. These colour schemes came in use during the Heian Period, and were employed frequently on Buddhist paintings and for decoration of Buddhist statues, especially on petals of their lotus pedestals. Among them the specimen under discussion is a rare piece having kept perfectly its original bright colours.\n     This lotiform support is placed on two flat bases (kamachi), upper and lower. The upper kamachi (Fig. 11) has simple floral patterns in red, blue and purple on its top surface, while its edge is painted in “rainbow colouring” of orange and red, interspersed with floral patterns in two colour schemes similar to those of the petals in the kaeri-bana. The under surface of this upper kamachi has interesting drawings and scribblings in Chinese ink (Pl. IV, in infra-red photography); the writings, as is discussed by Mr. ITŌ Takuji in the present volume, are important specimens of kana letters in cursive script dating back to the middle of the eleventh century. There are also arabesque patterns which, apparently, the painter drew for drill, and figures of water-fowl conventionalized into the forms of cursive ideographs in the manner known at the time as ashide-e (“reed-manner picture”, pictorial writing, that is characters or letters scattered in flowing cursive script among graphic patterns appearing like reeds growing here and there in a marsh). The latter group is the oldest example of ashde-e known to date. The lower kamachi also is covered on its top surface (the portion which is not concealed by the upper kamachi) with white priming, over which fine patterns are painted in blue and red. The edge of the lower kamachi is carved into threesteps, the steps being coloured in blue, white and red respectively from top to bottom.\n     Taken altogether, the “Moon disk” and its lotus pedestal, although small in size present a beautiful form and a colour design rich in variety, yet well-balanced as a whole. They are most typical of the refined artistic concept of the Japanese in the middle of the eleventh century, in which the noble, graceful culture of the Heian Period reached its apex.","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"秋山, 光和"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{}]},{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"Akiyama, Terukazu","creatorNameLang":"en"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_date","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2016-12-27"}],"displaytype":"detail","filename":"182_11_Akiyama_Redacted.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"24.4 MB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_11","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"182_11_Akiyama_Redacted.pdf","url":"https://tobunken.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/6892/files/182_11_Akiyama_Redacted.pdf"},"version_id":"24046819-2b0f-4c99-a49a-8569036a3211"}]},"item_keyword":{"attribute_name":"キーワード","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"鳳凰堂本尊胎内納置阿弥陀大小呪月輪及蓮台（京都　平等院蔵）","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"The Construction and Colouring of the “Moon Disk” Inskribed with Two Dharani of Amitabha and Its Lotus Pedestal, Found Inside the Statue of Amitabha in the Hoodo, Byodo-in Monastery","subitem_subject_language":"en","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"jpn"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"journal article","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501"}]},"item_title":"鳳凰堂本尊胎内納置の阿弥陀大小呪月輪及び蓮台の構造と彩色文様","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"鳳凰堂本尊胎内納置の阿弥陀大小呪月輪及び蓮台の構造と彩色文様"},{"subitem_title":"The Construction and Colouring of the “Moon Disk” Inskribed with Two Dharani of Amitabha and Its Lotus Pedestal, Found Inside the Statue of Amitabha in the Hoodo, Byodo-in Monastery","subitem_title_language":"en"}]},"item_type_id":"10001","owner":"3","path":["1181"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"公開日","attribute_value":"2016-12-27"},"publish_date":"2016-12-27","publish_status":"0","recid":"6892","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["鳳凰堂本尊胎内納置の阿弥陀大小呪月輪及び蓮台の構造と彩色文様"],"weko_creator_id":"3","weko_shared_id":3},"updated":"2023-05-15T14:09:09.243073+00:00"}
