Abstract
“Śākyamuni Descendiendo De La Montaña” es uno de los temas iconográficos aportados a la pintura budista por parte del Budismo Zen. Su origen se encuentra en las pinturas provenientes de la China de la Período Sung (960-1279) llegadas a Japón en el Período Kamakura (1185-1333). Este trabajo hace un breve recorrido por la historia pictórica de este curioso tema iconográfico hasta el siglo XX, enlazando con los dos rollos verticales que pertenecen a la Colección José María Prieto en la Biblioteca de Psicología de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid. Igualmente se intenta realizar una interpretación o lectura del tema pictórico
"Śākyamuni Descending Of The Mountain" is one of the iconographic themes provided by Zen Buddhism to Mahayana Buddhist Art that may considered a contemplative composition. Its origin may be traced back to China, Song period (960-1279) that introduced new developments in landscape and portrait paintings. Both are combined in this religious work that became the archetype of a distressed man that became Buddha when he awoke to the realities of daily life. This image arrived to Japan in the Kamakura period (1185-1333) and the present study makes a brief follow up through the pictorial history until the twentieth century of this enigmatic portrayed prototype, the last section is an analysis of two hanging scrolls available in the Jose M. Prieto & UCM Collection and an interpretation on what was the intended use when it was displayed in the alcove of a room to disclose one or two prized and evocative objects
