Abstract

This study tried to explore the influence of the Buddhist culture style of the Three Kingdomsperiod on Japan through the Halo patterns of Buddhist statues of the Three Kingdoms period inKorea and the Asuka period in Japan. Among the three kingdoms, Baekje's Buddhist culture, asseen in the wooden pagoda site of Wangheungsa (王興寺), a great national Buddhist temple builtin 577, greatly influenced the formation of Japan's ancient culture, and played a pivotal role inconstructing the first temple, the Asuka temple. And it has been noted that cultural exchanges ofBuddhism were actively conducted between Baekje and Japan. At present, gilt bronze Buddhiststatues and wooden Buddhist statues created in the 7th century have been brought to Horyujitemple, and the fact that these Buddhist statues were established in close relation with the ThreeKingdoms period in Korea, especially Baekje, has already been revealed through the work ofmany domestic scholars. Therefore, to examine the Buddhist art of Horyuji temple, which couldbe the representative of Asuka period Buddhist art, will reversely be a necessary task for studyingBuddhist art in the Three Kingdoms period in Korea. Taking this importance into consideration, this study attempts to examine the Halo pattern ofthe Baekje Buddhist statue in the Three Kingdoms period as a whole, and examine the Halopattern of the seated gilt bronze Sakyamuni triad enclosed in Geumdang of Horyuji temple inJapan. From the results of this study, the Halo pattern of the seated gilt bronze Sakyamuni triad ofGeumdang in Horyuji temple proved that the sculptural form of Buddhist statues in Baekje hadan absolute effect as recorded in the Japanese NihonShoki, and through the inscriptions on theback of Halo, it was also confirmed that this statue was constructed by Doribulsa (止利佛師) fromBaekje. Through vessel shape halos of the Northern Wei Dynasty and Kokuryeo, Baekje andShilla of our country and single Mandola Buddhist Triad forms, this study investigated the influence relationship with Horyuji temple Sakyamuni triad, and in the case of lotus flowerpattern, Arabesque pattern, and flame pattern, etc., which were in Halo, we could see that therewas familiarity with patterns in the Baekje period. Although the comparison target of this study is limited to the gilt bronze Sakyamuni triadenshrined in Geumdang of Horyuji temple, through some of these facts, it is found that there is aclose similarity between the style of Buddhist art at the time when Horyuji temple was foundedand the style of Buddhist art of Baekje from the second half of the 6th century to the early 7thcentury, and it is also confirmed the Buddhist statue propagation of the Three Kingdoms period,in which this study may leave its significance.
