西藏 約1300年 微型佛畫五幅 Tsakli are small paintings employed in numerous ritual situations, such as empowerment rituals, mandala creations, teaching transmissions, substitutes for ceremonial items, and visualization aids. Tsakli can encompass a vast range of subjects, from deities to their attributes and appropriate offerings. While thangka paintings often depict these subjects in rich detail, tsakli generally focus on one item at a time. Typical of the 14th century, the Buddha images here have tall conical ushnishas and rainbow aureoles, like those appearing in a thangka of Amitabha formerly in the Jucker Collection (Sotheby's, New York, 26 March, 2006, lot 48) and two other examples in private collections (HAR 36445 & 36448). The Newari inspired scroll work and squat proportions of the Tara figure, with simple gold band jewelry, is redolent of c.1309 mural painting at Shalu Monastery (Laird, Murals of Tibet, Koln, 2018, p.393) Provenance Collection of Namgyal and Veronika Ronge, Germany Private Collection, New York
