SACRED
BUDDHIST PAINTING
Sacred Buddhist Painting is a lucid and readable account
of thangka painting - a form of scroll painting
integral to Tibetan Buddhist worship. Tibetans were often
advised by their religious preceptors to commission a
painting for the 'removal' of physical or mental obstacles,
or to create the prerequisites for 'a long and healthy
life'. Like any other virtuous deed, the commissioning
of religious art was believed to earn merit.This book
has thangkas from renowned private and public collections
the world over and from the collection of H.H. the Dalai
Lama's private chapel (Namgyal Monastery), and from his
collection donated to the Library of Works and Archives
in Dharmasala, India. |
