拍品描述
A THANGKA OF BUDDHA SHAKYAMUNI AND THE SIXTEEN ARHATS, TIBET, 18TH CENTURYDistemper, gilt, and gouache on cloth. Mounted as a hanging scroll on a fabric frame. This finely painted thangka depicts Buddha Shakyamuni seated in dhyanasana on a lotus throne, his left hand lowered in bhumisparsha mudra, calling the Earth to witness his enlightenment, and his right hand holding an alms bowl above his lap. He wears a red patchwork robe embellished with gilt bands, and his serene face—marked by downcast eyes and a faint smile—is framed by a radiant nimbus.The central deity is flanked by his two principal disciples, Sariputta and Maudgalyayana, each holding a khakkhara staff in the right hand and a black alms bowl in the left. Surrounding them are the sixteen seated arhats, with the senior-most placed at the top and the remainder arranged in vertical rows along the sides. Below the throne appears Manjushri, flanked by Abheda and Bhadra, all haloed and rendered with individualized expressions and attributes, completing the richly ordered and balanced composition.The lowest register depicts the Chinese monk Hvashang, shown with his belly exposed, and Dharmatala accompanied by his tiger, both flanked on either side by the Four Guardian Kings, richly attired in armor and bearing their distinctive emblems of protection.Provenance: A private collection in the USA.
