Palden Lhamo Thangka – 53×69 cm, Fine Grade
Palden Lhamo, dark blue with three eyes and a crown of five skulls, rides side-saddle on an orange mule with an eye on its rump across a sea of pink waves, raising a vajra-tipped club in her right hand and holding a skull cup at her heart, her hair streaming upward in fine gold-coloured lines.
Painted in the black-and-gold style, she rides through dense gold-coloured clouds beneath a parasol, with a purple dragon at the upper left and a teal dragon at the upper right.
Gold-coloured rocks rise at the foot around an offering of skulls drawn in black and gold-coloured line work, inside a red border.
Hand-painted in Nepal on cotton canvas.
Size: 53 × 69 cm (20.9 × 27.2 in), including the painted border. Hand-painted, so allow ±1–2 cm. Size guide →
