Refuge Tree with Vajradhara Thangka – 75×103 cm, Master Grade
A refuge tree (tsokshing): blue Vajradhara, holding a vajra and bell crossed at his heart, sits at the centre of a great tree whose branches carry the lineage masters in tiers rising to a Buddha beneath a rainbow arch.
Circles of Buddhas and bodhisattvas sit to the left and right, a many-armed blue meditation deity in union with a red consort stands below Vajradhara among other deities and dancing figures in flame halos, and a row of protectors rides on clouds near the base.
At the foot of the tree, people and animals gather around a lake.
Hand-painted in Nepal on cotton canvas. Unmounted: it comes rolled, ready to frame or to have mounted.
Size: 75 × 103 cm (29.5 × 40.6 in), including the painted border. Hand-painted, so allow ±1–2 cm. Size guide →
In the box: the painting, rolled (never folded) in a strong tube.
Also in this painting: Lineage masters, Buddhas, bodhisattvas, meditation deities, protectors
About Refuge Tree
