On many occasions we get asked if our works are prints given their high quality and detail like no other offered. So, just for the record J This thangka is a 100% original hand painted with real stone paint on canvas adorned with pure 24k gold! This absolutley gorgeous and haunting thangka has been made possible by the work of Karma lama. Karma lama has been kind enough to bless our weekly offerings with his range of some of the most SPECTACULAR thangka creations that I have EVER SEEN! I have will place a very very heavy emphasis upon his work as it literally is some of the most beautiful thangka artistry that i have seen till date. His mastery is absolutely brilliant and all of his creations, every single piece is the most hauntingly beautiful thangka art that i have been blessed to see with my own eyes. his works rank as possibly some of the very highest in my list, pictures really really do not his work any justice! his proportions are the most strictest and accurate i have seen in many years, his layering work is impeccable and the faces that grace every deity is simply breathtaking! THIS THANGKA MEASURES A VERY LARGE 27 X 19 INCHES! I AM THE ONLY SELLER TO ACTUALLY OFFER HAVING THESE THANGKAS MOUNTED IN PURE TIBETAN STYLE SILK BROCADE READY FOR MOUNTING AND DISPLAY. A FIFTH GENERATION THANGKA BROCADE MASTER SHALL ACCENT THE BEAUTY O THIS ALREADY MAJESTIC THANGKA FOR A SMALL FEE! OF COURSE, WE USE ONLY PURE SILK OF THE HIGHEST CLASS, NO POLYESTER OR CHINESE BROCADE USED !! I doubt you shall ever see a Medicine Buddha done in such wonderful beauty, I am particularly fond of the colors used in this piece with springing energy across the canvas! Aside form the obvious beauty of Medicine buddha please take notice of the more subtle things that make this a truly masterful piece-facial features, his robe, the springing water! Unlike the atrocious "antique" thangkas that the Chinese power sellers on Ebay litter across this website from their "faketories" which claim that their works are valued at $2,000-$3000 yet have absolutely no reserve price or start bid price. Rather this thangka is a contemporary piece made in accordance with the strict tradition of Thangka making which takes months to complete intricately detailed works of caliber.DON'T BE DUPED BY POOR QUALITY, 5 FEET, CHINESE IMIATATIONS! A SIMPLE EXERCISE-LOOK AT THE CLOSE-UPS OF ALL THE THANGKAS WHICH I OFFER AND THE AND COMPARE THE DETAIL, CLARITY, COLORS AND ICONOGRAPHY DEPICTED BY THE GLUT OF CHINESE THANGKAS ON SALE. Vaiśravaa is the guardian of the northern direction, and his home is in the northern quadrant of the topmost tier of the lower half of Mount Sumeru. He is the leader of all the yakṣas who dwell on the Sumeru's slopes.He is often portrayed with a yellow face. He carries an umbrella or parasol (chatra) as a symbol of his sovereignty. He is also sometimes displayed with a mongoose, often shown ejecting jewels from its mouth. The mongoose is the enemy of the snake, a symbol of greed or hatred; the ejection of jewels represents generosity. He is said to have performed austerities for a thousand years, in regard for which Brahma gave immortality and made him the god of wealth, guardian of all treasures of the earth which he has to distribute according to the destiny of the receivers. His dwelling place was said to be on Klaka in the Himalayas, abounding in wealth and magnificent.He is also known as Dhanapati, the lord of riches. He is one of the Guardians of the directions, representing the north.Vaisrvaa also credited money to Venkateshwara or Vishnu for his marriage with Padmavati. Thats the reason devotees / people when they go to Tirupati donate money in Venkateshwara's Hundi so that he can pay back to Kubera. According to the Vishnupuran this process will go on till the end of Kali yuga The law of karma is what I abide by, negative energy should not be accumulated hence I make no misrepresentations or false claims for any of my listings.
