Unframed Vintage Tibetan Life of the Buddha Thangka | Shakyamuni | Blue-Grey Palette | 24K Gold | 27 × 22 cm

A rare hand-painted Tibetan thangka depicting the Life of the Buddha in a distinctive blue-grey palette with 24K gold accents an unusual and striking departure from the warm ochre tones more commonly seen in this subject matter.

At the center sits Shakyamuni Buddha in meditation, radiating golden light within a lotus mandala. Surrounding him, narrative scenes from his life unfold across a cool slate-blue landscape populated with deities, attendants, and sacred architecture rendered in extraordinary detail.

The blue-grey ground gives this piece a contemplative, almost moonlit quality that sets it apart from any other thangka in our collection.
