This remarkable collection of postcards features beautiful depictions of
the Buddha by master Himalayan artist Romio Shrestha in Tibetan-style
thangkas, or spiritual paintings, offering visual manifestations of the
divine. Produced by Shrestha and his team of artisan monks, Buddhas of
the Celestial Gallery Postcard Book depicts the life of the deity in
eloquent detail and renders postmodern interpretations of an age-old
Tibetan artistic tradition in which images are painstakingly created
using malachite, lapis, and marigolds, and painted at times with three
hairs of a cat's tail. Gathered from Romio Shrestha's best-selling
Buddhas of the Celestial Gallery, these exquisite portrayals of the
celestial spheres, known as mandalas, invite viewers to meditate on the
Buddha's message of love, completion, and connectedness.
