Catalogue Note

An antique bronze image of Padmasambhava, or Guru Rinpoche, dating to the 18th–19th century and made within the Tibetan-Himalayan Buddhist tradition. His distinctive appearance identifies the tantric master who is revered as a foundational figure of Buddhism in Tibet.

Guru Rinpoche

Padmasambhava is represented not as a Buddha but as an enlightened teacher with highly specific ritual attributes and dress. Sculptures of this kind were central to lineage devotion and tantric practice.
