The thangka looks even more beautiful in person. The thangka arrived earlier than I expected and it was packaged very well. The seller answered all my questions promptly and kept me up to date with shipping details ect. I highly recommend buying from this seller and I look forward to purchasing paintings from them in the future. Thank you RitualThanka!

Oil-Varnished Star Mandala:
The Oil Turned Dark. The universe and the interconnectedness of all things are shown in the stunning and complicated painting known as the Star Mandala. The mandala is made using a conventional method that involves painting with natural colors on cotton canvas and then varnishing it with oil. The varnish gives the artwork a lovely gloss and depth while also shielding it from harm.
The complicated geometric shapes and patterns that make up the Star Mandala spread out from a center point to form what appears to be a star. The mandala is frequently utilized in Tibetan Buddhist rituals and is thought to facilitate meditation and visualization, fostering inner tranquility and insight.
