四天王(持國天・增長天・廣目天・多聞天)一組四尊,以小巧比例呈現日本佛教中常見的護法立像配置,適合希望在同一空間中建立「四方守護」視覺秩序的收藏者。
每尊各自成像、並列時形成完整的四方格局;無論作為案頭觀賞或與既有佛像搭配陳設,都能清楚看出四尊分工與整體平衡感。
關於本件作品
本件為黃楊木(柘植)雕刻之四天王套組,每尊為獨立立像,整組共四尊。造型取法日本寺院常見的四天王立像傳統,並以東大寺所傳承的經典形象作為辨識基準:甲冑、立姿與威儀感強烈,強調四尊並置時的整體配置。此類四尊成套的形式,源於寺院空間中以四方配置來完成守護格局的傳統需求,因此多以「一組四尊」呈現,便於完整陳設與收藏。
文化背景說明
在日本佛教脈絡中,四天王(四天王像)被視為守護佛法與道場的護法神,常見於寺院金堂、門內或壇場周邊,以「四方」的概念維持秩序與界線。四尊分別對應東(持國天)、南(增長天)、西(廣目天)、北(多聞天),在信仰理解上象徵守護、規範與安定。面對此類像容,通常以恭敬心對待:選擇乾淨、穩定且不被雜物壓迫的位置,避免隨意跨越、踩踏或與不潔之物混放;移動時以雙手承托,保持端正與安靜的心態即可。

供奉位置之建議
- 若以「四方」概念陳設,可將四尊分置於同一層架或供桌的四角,保持視覺上的均衡與對稱。
- 放置於高於腰部、乾淨且穩固的平面,避免靠近地面走道或容易碰撞的邊緣。
- 可與主尊佛像同一空間陳列,但建議保留適當間距,不讓其他物件遮擋面部與姿態。
- 避免與雜物、飲食器具或不潔物混放;若空間有限,至少維持周圍整潔、光線柔和。

Consecration (Eye-opening Ceremony)
You can choose an option to consecrate this statue before shipping from Japan. If you select this option, we will bring the statue for an eye-opening ceremony and ship it to you after the ritual is complete.
This is recommended if you want your statue to be more than an object — a presence you can practice with.
