In the tradition of Celestial Gallery and Goddesses of the Celestial Gallery, Romio Shresthas latest large format art in Buddha’s of the Celestial Gallery gathers striking Tibetan style Mandala paintings featuring the Buddha. Each book is hand-bound and two feet tall, reproduced from master painter Romio Shrestha and his team of artisan monks, who render postmodern interpretations of an age-old Tibetan artistic tradition. Made from malachite, lapis, marigolds and painted at times with three hairs of a cats tail, these paintings are produced in hauntingly powerful detail.
39 new beautiful portraits of the Buddha rendered in the traditional Tibetan style with meticulous detail.
Thoughtful reflections and explanations on the different presentations of the Buddha.
