Green Tara Thangka – 53×68 cm, Fine Grade
Green Tara, painted in turquoise, sits on a lotus with her right foot stepping down onto a smaller lotus, her right hand at her knee in the gesture of giving and her left at her heart holding the stem of a flower, wearing a crown of gold-coloured flowers and large hoop earrings, framed by a halo and an aureole of fine gold-coloured line work.
Three figures sit among clouds across the top: a golden Buddha holding a bowl at the upper left, a crowned red figure in meditation at the centre and a blue Buddha holding a bowl at the upper right; below, a crowned red deity sits at the lower left and Saraswati plays a vina at the lower right, with an offering bowl holding a dharma wheel between them.
The painting is in the black-and-gold style: gold-coloured peonies, rocks, mountains and clouds fill the black ground, with touches of green hills and blue waves, inside a dark red border.
Hand-painted in Nepal on cotton canvas.
Size: 53 × 68 cm (20.9 × 26.8 in), including the painted border. Hand-painted, so allow ±1–2 cm. Size guide →
Also in this painting: Saraswati
