EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite and intricately detailed portrait, dating back to the 15th century, showcases Khenchen Tashi Tshultrim, an abbot, seated within a beautifully ornamented niche. The niche is adorned with lively scrollwork, reflecting the artistic influences of Nepal. The abbot is flanked by his spiritual ancestors, some of whom are identified through tiny inscriptions. Notable figures include the Buddha Shakyamuni's son Rahula and Shakyashribhadra (1127-1225), one of the last Kashmiri teachers to visit Tibet. The use of gold and vibrant colors, such as green and red, adds to the richness and grandeur of the painting. Khenchen Tashi Tshultrim is depicted in a meditative posture, with his hands in mudra, a symbolic hand gesture used in Buddhism. This masterpiece, painted in tempera on cloth, is a testament to the artistic and religious heritage of Asia, specifically India and Nepal, and showcases the importance of education and lineage in Buddhism. The painting is a valuable addition to any collection focusing on Asian art, religion, or the history of Tibetan Buddhism.
