摘要

現藏於故宮博物院的〈大理國梵像卷〉為大理國目前唯一傳世的畫卷，根據卷後的題跋，此卷完成的時間約落在1172-1175年間，張勝溫則為主要的作者。全卷繪製精工，描繪的人物、題材亦豐富，是研究南詔、大理國歷史、宗教及藝術的重要畫卷。〈大理國梵像卷〉中的宗教相關內容，一直以來都是學者們研究的重點。有別於過去多專注於其宗教圖像的研究，本論文將著重於過去學者較為忽略，畫卷中的帝王圖像為討論對象。〈大理國梵像卷〉中繪及帝王圖像的段落主要集中於首段利貞皇帝、末段十六大國王以及中段的南詔歷代帝后圖。

論文首先討論〈大理國梵像卷〉三個主要帝王圖像所運用的圖示傳統，並藉由其他的文獻、圖像，解讀卷中所繼承自唐、宋的繪畫傳統。並透過三個繪有帝王圖像的段落與傳統圖繪的連結，包括帝后禮佛圖、歷代帝王圖、王會圖。解讀當中繼承自過往繪畫傳統以及屬於傳統中創新的表現。提供對於同時代的帝后圖像可能的想像，同時，豐富對唐宋時期間帝后圖像的原有認知。

前人學者的研究多著重於〈大理國梵像卷〉與宗教的關係，然而檢視〈大理國梵像卷〉中的帝王圖像，則可發現其中除了宗教元素外，亦帶有著其他的政治訊息。藉由分析卷中帝王圖像的特殊意涵，以及日後〈大理國梵像卷〉進入乾隆宮廷，乾隆命其畫師對於重繪畫卷進行的改動，認為〈大理國梵像卷〉中的帝王圖像並非僅作為宗教形式的供養人，而是透過多樣帝后圖像的繪畫傳統，不時穿插於畫卷中各式與南詔帝王相關傳說故事的內容，以及他國王者前來會面、朝覲的行伍，一再地顯現南詔、大理國的皇權與多樣宗教的密切關係。同時也為〈大理國梵像卷〉的製作脈絡及緣由，提供一種新的研究觀點。
