藥師如來

長久以來,翡翠都是地位和財富的象徵,廣受景仰,人們相信佩戴翡翠能夠健康長壽。它是一種有重要意義的靈石,常被雕刻成寓意深遠的圖樣,與中國文化息息相關。

此件翡翠飾品有三面雕刻,循早期基督教藝術傳統,中世紀祭壇畫也常以三聯畫形式出現。三面雕刻接合在一起,可折疊關閉亦可打開。基督教祭壇畫一般為三聯畫,這一形式也逐漸被其他宗教所接受,甚至當代藝術家如曾梵志及弗朗西斯·培根等也開始創作三聯畫。2014年,培根的《喬治·戴爾肖像三習作(淺色背景)》於倫敦蘇富比售出,成交價45,463,700美元。

此獨一無二的三面翡翠吊墜打開後呈獻藥師佛即藥師如來雕像。莊嚴的藥師佛手捧一罐法露,右手輕放於右膝上,結與願印,身旁兩位脅侍日光遍照菩薩(「Suryaprabha」)與月光遍照菩薩(「Candraprabha」)。精美的三面雕刻翡翠佛像吊墜融合東西方文化,和諧有加,實為翡翠收藏者難得一見的罕有精品。
