The last „Pearls“ from the Mongolian Grassland
Mongolian thangkas, holy shrines, as well as papier-mâché and wood figures - in my gallery
This offer shows art objects from nomads who kept and worshiped them as images of deities in their yurts as protection and blessing donations. These usually important, sacred, ritual objects show in their simplicity, very often, enormous artistic skills and they express a profound veneration towards the presented deities.
For further comparision and information about the above items I recommend the recent publication:Buddha in the yurt: Buddhist Art from Mongolia
