寻找印度古代美学踪迹——《湿婆三面像》
In Search of Ancient Indian Aesthetics—Three Faces of Shiva

湿婆作为印度教所供奉信仰的神明，由哈拉帕文化与雅利安文化融合而产生，最后成为印度三主神之一,其形象本身就代表着印度古代美学。现存创作于公元7世纪初的《湿婆三面像》向我们展现了古代印度的湿婆形象，同时通过三个面相传达出印度古代美学韵味，即毁灭与破坏、生殖与创造、睿智与沉着，寓意正反两极终将达到和谐统一。
As a deity worshipped by Hinduism, Shiva emerged from the fusion of Harappan culture and Aryan culture, and finally became one of the three gods of India, whose image itself represents ancient Indian aesthetics. The existing Three Faces of Shiva, created in the early 7th century AD, shows us the image of Shiva in ancient India and conveys the aesthetic charm of ancient India through three faces, namely destruction and destruction, reproduction and creation, wisdom and calm, implying that opposites and opposites will eventually reach harmony and unity.
