Thanka with Large Buddha
Black and white artwork depicting a "Thanka with Large Buddha" by an unknown artist. The artwork shows a large Buddha figure in the lower-left corner, in a circular frame. The Buddha has dark hair styled in a bun on top of his head, earrings, and a robe. The figure is shown from the chest up. Above this Buddha, many smaller figures of people are scattered among puffy white clouds. In the upper-center of the image, a large oval frame contains another Buddha figure. This Buddha has dark hair and wears a robe. Below the oval-framed Buddha, to the right, another group of people on clouds interact with a horse-drawn cart containing more people. The right edge of the artwork features a patterned border.
