Arhat Rahula, 1400-1450. Creator: Unknown

Arhat Rahula, 1400-1450. The Buddha Shakyamuni had a son named Rahula, who became a disciple of his father. Tibetan monks regard him as a spiritual ancestor. Rahula went to a Buddhist heaven to teach, and it was there that he was given the crown he holds in his hands. The style of the throne and the facial features suggest influences from China. The rocks and animated trees are of a sort found in Tibetan paintings for only a brief period

EDITORS COMMENTS
Arhat Rahula, 1400-1450: A Spiritual Ancestor in Tibetan Buddhism This exquisite tempera on cloth painting depicts Arhat Rahula, the son of the Buddha Shakyamuni, from the 15th century (1400s). Rahula is considered a spiritual ancestor in Tibetan Buddhism, and is known for his journey to a Buddhist heaven where he was granted the crown he holds in his hands. The painting showcases Rahula in a cross-legged seated position, a common posture in Buddhist art, with his legs folded gracefully under him. His serene expression and the intricately designed throne suggest influences from Chinese art. The vibrant red color of his robe and the animated trees and rocks in the background are characteristic of a brief period in Tibetan painting. Arhat Rahula is often depicted as an Arhat, or a saintly disciple of the Buddha, and is also known as a Lohan or Luohan in Chinese Buddhism. The crown on his head symbolizes his enlightenment and spiritual attainment. This painting is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Asia and the continent's religious traditions. The intricate details and the use of vibrant colors make it a stunning work of art that continues to captivate viewers even today. The painting is believed to have originated from Tibet, and is a valuable addition to any collection of Asian or religious art. It is a reminder of the enduring influence of Buddhism on art and culture, and a testament to the spiritual legacy of Arhat Rahula.
