About the Item

This professionally framed "Vajrapani" thangka is hand painted on canvas with 24K real gold.

Measurement of art: With Frame: 41.5 x 36.5 inch Without the frame: 32 x 27 inch *Glare is seen on pics due to frame A handout on process of making a thangka will be included with the purchase. Thangka painting dates back to 7th century after Buddhism was spread in the Himalayan region (Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet and Northern India). In Eastern world Thangka is considered to be a part of Abhi-Dharma which means "The Art of Enlightenment". It is a scroll painting on canvas. Over the centuries Thangkas gradually acquired the status of collectible fine art from a purely spiritual art. Due to international museum shows and popularity of Buddhism Thangkas in particular are gaining a place on the art world's radar screen. The beauty and power of these intricate paintings are strong enough to stand up aesthetically for any viewer. This framed hand painted thangka on canvas is of wrathful deity "Vajrapani". Vajrapani is one of the earliest-appearing bodhisattvas in Buddhism. He is the protector and guide of Gautama Buddha and rose to symbolize the Buddha's power. Vajrapani is extensively represented in Buddhist iconography as one of the earliest three protective deities or bodhisattvas surrounding the Buddha. He holds a Vajra in one hand and is in wrathful expression.
