Baphuon (Angkor Thom, Angkorean styles, ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Refers to the style developed during the late 10th to the 11th centuries in Angkor. The style is characterized by foliage motifs, scarcity of sculpture in the round, and youthful-looking sculptural figures wearing thin, clinging garments lacking diadems and adorned with crisp, carved jewels and finely incised pleats. The style is evident in monumental sculptures, such as the Khleangs, the Phimeanakas, and Ta Keo, and in relief sculptures on lintels and tympana. Tympana in this style contain rectangular relief panels that illustrate scenes from the lives of Rama and Krishna through vivid portrayals of movement rather than through accurate representation of anatomical details. Hindu-influenced Buddhist sculptures also flourished under this style, featuring hairstyles set in fine braids rather than in snail-shell curls. Bronze productions in this style feature figures with inlaid eyes and eyebrows and a varied subject matter ranging from decorative to sacred.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 指於西元十世紀晚期至十一世紀間發展於吳哥的風格。此風格的特色包括:葉飾紋飾、鮮少出現立體雕刻,以及身著貼身薄衣、刻飾以珠寶及簡潔衣摺的無冕年輕人像。此風格顯現在諸如喀霖寺、空中宮殿、塔高寺等建築的紀念雕刻上,也可見在門楣與三角楣上的浮雕。此風格的三角楣上有矩形的浮雕板,板上描繪著拉瑪(Rama)以及牧牛神奎斯那(Krishna)種種的生活景象,這些浮雕捕捉了生動的動態畫面,而非精準地刻畫人體結構細節。本風格中也相當流行受到印度風格影響的佛雕,這種佛雕的髮型是編結精巧的辮子,而非蝸牛殼狀的捲髮。此風格的青銅製品眼睛與眉毛是鑲嵌上去的,主題多樣,範圍從裝飾主題到神聖主題皆有。 
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar de stijl die zich in de late 10de tot de 11de eeuw ontwikkelde in Angkor. De stijl wordt gekenmerkt door bladmotieven, het spaarzaam voorkomen van vrijstaande beeldhouwkunst, en jeugdig uitziende gebeeldhouwde figuren met dunne, nauwsluitende kleding zonder diadeem en met fijn gegraveerde plooien en versierd met scherp uitgesneden juwelen. De stijl is zichtbaar in monumentale beeldhouwwerken zoals de Khleangs, de Phimeanaka's en Ta Keo, en in reliëfwerk op lateien en timpanen. Timpanen in deze stijl zijn voorzien van rechthoekige reliëfpanelen met daarop taferelen uit het leven van Rama en Krishna, waarbij meer aandacht is besteed aan de levendige weergave van bewegingen dan aan anatomische details. De door het hindoeïsme beïnvloede boeddhistische beeldhouwwerken kwamen ook tot bloei onder deze stijl, waarbij het haar werd afgebeeld in fijne vlechten in plaats van krullen. Bronzen werken in deze stijl worden gekenmerkt door figuren met ingelegde ogen en wenkbrauwen en een gevarieerde onderwerpkeuze, uiteenlopend van decoratief tot religieus.
