EDITORS COMMENTS
This full-length portrait captures the enigmatic presence of the Grand Lama of the Selenginsk Lamasery, seated in the Lotus position with a serene expression on his face. The photograph was taken between 1870 and 1886, during a time when the borders between Russia and Mongolia were in flux, and the Selenginsk Lamasery in Siberia served as a vital meeting place for Buddhists from various regions. The Grand Lama is dressed in traditional Buddhist robes, with a hooded garment covering his head and shoulders. His clothing is simple and understated, reflecting the monastic traditions of the time. The photograph, reminiscent of cartes de visite, showcases the intricate details of the Grand Lama's costume, from the folds of his robes to the intricate patterns on his hood. The Grand Lama's posture, in the Padmasana or Lotus position, is a testament to his dedication to his spiritual practices. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Buddhism in Russia during the 19th century, a time when the borders between countries and religions were blurred, and the exchange of ideas and traditions was a vital part of human interaction. The photograph is a valuable addition to any collection of heritage art, showcasing the unique blend of Buddhist and Russian influences in Siberia during this period. The Grand Lama's portrait serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Buddhism in Russia and the importance of preserving cultural heritage for future generations.
