Koh Ker (Angkorean styles, Angkorean, ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Refers to the early Angkor style that developed during the second quarter of the tenth century following the rise of the Bakheng style. In sculpture, the style reflects similarities to the Bakheng style in the handling of garments, hairstyles, and jewelry and in the predominance of frontality and linear abstraction of features. Sculptural productions in this style, unlike in other early Angkor styles, feature earrings and amulets and figures depicted in dynamic, action-filled poses with legs and arms extended. In decorative arts, the style is distinguished by the munificent foliate motifs that surround figures of deities and attendants in the tympana above the lintels. Guardian figures inhabit niches in temple doorways and exude an aura of inflexible formality in their postures and facial expressions.

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 指發展於西元925年至950年間的早期吳哥風格,此風格發展於巴肯寺風格之後。在雕刻方面,寇克風格與巴肯寺風格在以下幾方面相當類似:兩種風格處理衣物、髮型、珠寶的手法相似,兩者著重正面描繪,並運用了抽象的線條。與早期吳哥風格不同的是,此風格的雕刻作品雕刻了耳環與護身符,人物的手臂與雙腿張開,展現了動態的姿勢。在裝飾藝術方面,此風格的特色是門楣上方的門楣中心有大量的葉飾圖案圍繞著神祇與侍從。守護神安置於廟宇走廊的神龕中,這些守護神的姿勢與臉部表情都相當拘謹。 
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar de vroege Angkor-stijl die werd ontwikkeld gedurende het tweede kwart van de tiende eeuw, na de opkomst van de Bakheng-stijl. In beeldhouwkunst weerspiegelt de stijl overeenkomsten met de Bakheng-stijl in de behandeling van gewaden, haarstijlen en juwelen, en in de overheersing van frontaliteit en lineaire abstractie van kenmerken. Beeldhouwkundige productie in deze stijl wordt, in tegenstelling tot andere vroege Angkor-stijlen, gekenmerkt door oorbellen en amuletten en figuren die worden afgebeeld in dynamische, actieve poses met uitgestrekte benen en armen. In decoratieve kunsten wordt deze stijl gekarakteriseerd door de weelderige bladmotieven die figuren van heiligen en bedienden omringen in het timpaan boven de lateien. Bewakersfiguren staan in de nissen van tempelingangen en stralen door hun houdingen en gelaatsuitdrukkingen een sfeer uit van rigide formaliteit. 
Spanish ..... Se refiere al primer estilo de Angkor que se desarrolló durante el segundo cuarto del siglo décimo siguiendo el apogeo del estilo Bakheng. En escultura, el estilo refleja similitudes con el estilo Bakheng en el tratamiento de las prendas de vestir, peinados, y joyería y en el predominio de la frontalidad y la abstracción lineal de rasgos. Las producciones esculturales en este estilo, a diferencia de otros estilos Angkor tempranos, ofrece pendientes y amuletos y figuras representadas en poses dinámicas, llenas de acción con las piernas y brazos extendidos. En artes decorativas, el estilo se caracteriza por los motivos foliados muníficos que rodean figuras de deidades y sirvientes en el tympana sobre los dinteles. Las figuras guardianas se alojan en nichos en las puertas de los templos y transmiten una aura de formalidad inflexible en sus posturas y expresiones faciales.
