Abstract

Fahai Temple in Beijing is the royal temple of Ming Dynasty. The mural paintings in the temple are relatively complete, and the mural paintings are the representative works of the existing Ming Dynasty mural paintings. This paper chooses this representative artistic content to analyze, and tries to explore and analyze the style source and embodiment of the four heavenly Kings in the frescoes of Fahai Temple. By comparing with the images of the four Heavenly Kings in the Great Tibetan Sutra of Xixia Text in the sixth year of the Yuan Dade and the four Heavenly Kings in the Yuan Guan Zang in the second year of the Yuan Dynasty, it is found that the four Heavenly Kings in the frescoes of Fahai Temple originally came from here. And compared with the style of the Southern Song Dynasty courtyard painting and Tibetan Buddhist art, find out the style source, and finally analyze the image artistic value of the fresco in Fahai Temple. ??According to the research from various aspects, it can be concluded that the fresco powder of the four Heavenly Kings of Fahai Temple originally originated from the Tanguan Sutra and the Yuanguanzang in the Yuan Journal, and the style inherited the style of the Southern Song Dynasty courtyard painting and also had many features of Tibetan Buddhism.
