Muut tiedot

This two thangkas belongs to a group of paintings, executed with great energy and spontaneity, possibly by Mongolian and/or Chinese artists associated to the Yonghegong Lama Temple in Beijing. The iconography of the figures follows classical Buddhist description, but also often have unusual depictions of Buddhas and deities. Commonly 'Om Ah Hum' is written in pseudo Sanskrit on reverse of the thangkas.
