EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of the "Supersecret Hayagriva Father-Mother" created by the Chinese School in the 17th to early 19th century. The piece, measuring an impressive 116.8x71.1 cm, is currently housed in the Freer Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The painting itself, executed with mineral pigments on sized cotton, depicts a powerful and enigmatic figure from Buddhist mythology. With its original Qing brocade mounts and silver roller knobs intact, this artwork exemplifies both artistic mastery and historical significance. The Supersecret Hayagriva Father-Mother is a prominent figure in Chinese and Tibetan Buddhism, representing wisdom, compassion, and protection against negative forces. The intricate details of this thangka painting highlight its spiritual symbolism and cultural importance. Part of The Alice S. Kandell Collection at the Freer Gallery of Art, this remarkable piece offers viewers a glimpse into ancient Chinese artistry while honoring Buddhist traditions that have shaped Eastern spirituality for centuries. As we admire this stunning photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, we are reminded of how art transcends time and borders to connect us with diverse cultures and profound human experiences.
