西藏 十五世紀 錯銀錯紅銅索南孜摩銅像Sonam Tsemo (1142-82) was the son of Sachen Kunga Nyingpo and the second of The Five Founding Fathers of the Sakya order (Sakya Jetsun Gongma Nga). He was the fourth to hold the office of Sakya Trizin ('Throneholder'). Following his father's death, Tsemo's education at Kadam monasteries helped inform the monastic structure adopted by the Sakya school.Sonam Tsemo is commonly depicted wearing the thick outer cloak of a layman, with bunching folds around his biceps as he raises his hands to forward the Dharma. Compare his physiognomy, especially the treatment of his hair, to another portrait of this master within a Sakya lineage set at Ngor Monastery published in von Schroeder, Buddhist Sculptures in Tibet, Vol.II, Hong Kong, 2003, p.1213, no.333E.
