Lot Description:A Thangka Of Wrathful Padmasambhava
Mid-20th century
Thangka: 49.0 x 37.0cm, including brocade: 82.0 x 48.0cm -
Notes:Note the design of the mounting brocade, which bears two red flags flanking a red star above a circle of wheat spike and a gear wheel - a conspicuous product of the communist era in Tibet post 1947. Regardless of whether or not the brocade is a later addition to the Thangka, it is a unique and intriguing clashing of traditional religion and modern ideology. Also note: No reserve
