An antique, 19th Century or earlier tsakli painting in mineral pigments depicting,
within a triple rainbow nimbus the seated Padmasambhava- Guru Rinpoche enveloped in winter robes trimmed with thick tiger skin.
His finely painted features radiate wisdom and compassion - the Lotus Born holds a skull cup,
within which is a bhumpa - his right hand in the gesture of explication and a khatvanga under his arm.
Lama's thumbprint to reverse. 9 x 11.1cm
