About this piece

A green figure in an orange cloth, mid-motion.

This hand painted tsakli ritual card was made in Tibet in the early 19th century, in paper and pigment. Tsakli cards are commonly used in sets during Tibetan Buddhist empowerment rites and may depict peaceful or wrathful figures. The central figure is green, wearing bright orange cloth, set against a red-brown ground with a red border. Small bursts of white and yellow break up the background. The paint shows light wear at the edges. It is framed in black with a wide white mat.

About 18 by 15 inches framed. Bright, brief and committed.
