Object Details

Catalogue Note

Dimensions: H 89.5 × W 65 cm | Tradition: Sakya – Ngor | Central deity: Hevajra | Dating: probably ca. 1450–1490

An extensively inscribed Tibetan lineage thangka centred on Hevajra, the principal meditational deity of the Sakya Lamdré tradition. The composition combines lineage masters, protectors, dakinis and wealth deities within a tightly organised religious programme.

Inscriptions and lineage

Research has identified historical figures including Chögyal Phagpa Lodrö Gyeltsen, Zhangtön Könchok Pel, Nyenchen Sönam Tenpa and Ngorchen Kunga Zangpo. The reverse carries a substantial Tibetan colophon together with ritual Rañjanā/Lantsa inscriptions positioned behind principal figures.

Attribution

The combined evidence of lineage, inscriptions, composition and painting style supports an attribution to the early Ngor tradition in the second half of the 15th century. The dating remains an art-historical attribution rather than an inscribed date.

Condition

The original brocade mounting is no longer present. The painted textile shows age-related creasing, craquelure, pigment loss and wear, while the principal iconography and much of the inscription remain legible.
