唐代筆記 vol.46 岡田美術館：加彩楽舞俑（唐代樂隊） - Okada Museum, Hakone: Pottery Court Musician, Tang Dynasty

加彩樂舞俑（唐代樂隊）

唐代，7–8世紀

共十二軀樂人

高14.8～15.2公分；舞人高19.3～19.9公分

岡田美術館藏

此組俑由十位坐姿樂人與二位立姿舞人構成，樂人各執不同樂器，舞人則作翩然起舞之態。通體施以紅、綠等彩繪，今僅殘留部分色層。其形象皆為女性，反映出唐代宮廷樂舞的繁華景象。

唐代長安、洛陽為東西交通的中心，西域（特別是粟特人等伊朗系民族）所傳入之音樂與舞蹈盛行於上層社會，形成兼容並蓄的宮廷文化風貌。此類樂舞俑常隨王公貴族之葬出土，作為象徵生前享樂與吉祥的陪葬品。作品不僅體現唐代寫實與華麗並重的造型藝術，亦反映當時國際化都城的文化交流盛況。此組俑曾為日本畫家安田靫彥（1884–1978）舊藏。

Painted Pottery Court Musicians and Dancers

Tang dynasty, 7th–8th century

Set of twelve figures

Height (musicians): 14.8–15.2 cm; (dancers): 19.3–19.9 cm

Collection of the Okada Museum of Art, Hakone

This ensemble consists of ten seated female musicians, each holding a different instrument, and two standing female dancers captured in graceful motion. Traces of red and green pigments remain on the surfaces, suggesting the original vivid polychromy.

During the Tang dynasty, Chang’an and Luoyang flourished as cosmopolitan capitals at the crossroads of East–West exchange. Music and dance introduced by Sogdians and other Iranian peoples from Central Asia became fashionable in the royal court. Such painted pottery figures were commonly produced as tomb furnishings for aristocrats, symbolizing the refined pleasures and auspiciousness of court life. The group exemplifies the Tang dynasty’s synthesis of realism and opulence, as well as its vibrant cosmopolitan culture. Formerly in the collection of the Japanese painter Yasuda Yukihiko (1884–1978).

加彩楽舞俑

（かさいがくぶよう）

唐時代　7～8世紀12軀高（楽人）14.8～15.2cm（舞人）19.3～19.9cm

一人一人異なる楽器を持ち、座って演奏する10体の楽人（がくじん）と、立って舞う2体の舞人（まいびと）の俑（よう）です。いずれも女性とみられ、朱や緑の彩色が所々に残っています。 東西交易により国際都市として栄えた唐の都の長安や洛陽では、ソグド人などのイラン系西域 （中央アジア）諸国からもたらされた音楽と舞踊が流行し、こうした楽舞俑が数多く作られ、王族や貴族の墓などに埋納されました。唐王朝の国際色豊かで華やかな宮廷文化の一端をうかがい知ることができる作例といえます。かつては日本画家の安田靫彦（ゆきひこ）が愛蔵していました。
