Description
Small Buddhist Thangka of Chenrezig is painted on hand-treated cotton canvas. The size of the painting is 30*22cm.
Chenrezig is a God of compassion who refrains from entering the blissful state of nirvana to remain here so that he can save the living being of the earth.
Chengriz is depicted in a peaceful appearance with white body color. He has one face, and 4 hands. The first pair of hands placed at the heart holds a precious wishing jewel.
The first left upraised at the side holds a mala of prayer beads. The left also upraised holds a lotus blossom delicately between the fingers.
His black hair is piled on the top of the head with some falling loose across the shoulders.
He is dorned with a crown of gold and jewels, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and anklets, he wears a krishnasara deerskin across the left shoulder.
His shoulder is wrapped with a silk scarf and the lower body is attired in a silk skirt. The legs are folded in vajra posture atop a moon disc and multi-colored lotus seat surrounded by a large red nimbus and orange areola of radiant light.
Pink lotus flowers and green foliage appear to adorn the edges. The ground in front is strewn with heaps of wishing gems, gold ornaments, elephant tusks, cymbals, a shell with scented water, a lamp, and a flower vase.
