Medicine Buddha Silver Mandala Thangka

• The word thangka translates to "recorded message."  Thangka painting is an ancient Tibetan Buddhist art form that combines deities, symbolism, and sacred geometry.
• This silver masterpiece thangka features a Tibetan mandala style design with Medicine Buddha in the center.  Every inch of this painting includes intricate silver detailing.
• Our Tibetan thangkas are hand painted by master artists and apprentices in the Kathmandu Valley.  Thangka painting schools in Nepal help to keep Tibetan traditions alive.

The Medicine Buddha is a deity of compassion and healing.  He is believed to alleviate suffering for mental and physical illness.  Often his image is shown with rays of lapis lazuli light radiating from his crown.

Each detail is painted by hand on cotton canvas using natural mineral and vegetable pigments with silver accents.  The intricate brushstrokes and extraordinary detail make these thangkas genuine works of art.  It comes unframed and ready for Western style framing of your choosing.

Measures approximately 13.5 by 13.5 inches.

Thangka does not include a frame.  We suggest shopping with your local frame or craft store to select a style that best suits you and your thangka!  Looks great in a classic Western style photo frame or wooden magnetic poster hanger frames.
