Mirror of the Buddha: early portraits from Tibet, with contributions by Christian Luczanits

Jackson, David P

In this book the authors investigate painted portraits of early Tibetan teachers. Images of these eminent personages embodied Buddhist ideals in often idealized human form. In creating these depictions, Tibetan painters of the twelfth through fourteenth century intensely imitated the artistic conventions developed in Pala- and Sena-ruled eastern India (Bengal).
