Artist: Tenth Karmapa Choying Dorje
Дата: 1600
Музей: Rubin Museum of Art (New York, United States)
техніка: Sculpture
This sculpture is attributed to the hand of Choying Dorje (1604-1674), the Tenth Karmapa, who was head of the Karma Kagyu School of Tibetan Buddhism. An eccentric figure within the history of Tibetan art, the Tenth Karmapa possessed a highly individual style, looking to a range of traditions for inspiration, including ancient metalwork from Kashmir and Swat. These influences can be seen in this sculpture of the goddess Tara in the elliptical shape of the lotus petals that make up her seat and the striated pattern on her tight-fitting clothing, which closely models her form.Other aspects of the Tenth Karmapa
