不丹、十八/十九世紀 竹巴噶舉唐卡

détrempe sur tissu
assis sur un trône lotiforme sous une canopée, vêtu d'une fine robe en soie rouge et de la coiffe rouge et or typique des Drukpa Kagyu, tenant un texte bouddhique dans sa main gauche, la main droite en vitarka mudra, dessous deux disciples debout de chaque côté de l'autel chargé d'objets rituels, puis Manjusri sur son lion blanc, les maîtres Kagyu au-dessus

The painting is in a textile mount. It is in overall good condition. There are overall losses to the pigments along some horizontal and vertical creases, most notably a vertical fold/crease to the face of the central figure going upwards towards the upper edge. There are small areas where the pigments have been retouched and/or stabilized. The colours are vibrant with fine details highlighted in gold.
