Enlightened Gautama Siddhartha Buddha in Radiant Gold
This exquisite Thangka of Gautama Siddhartha Buddha, popularly referred to as the Sage of the Shakyas, is an adored representation of knowledge and enlightenment. Hand-painted in the Nakthang (Gold on Red) manner, this artwork highlights the Buddha's calm figure with authentic 24K gold, creating a brilliant contrast with the deep red background. The Buddha is depicted sitting on a throne surrounded by enlightened beings, representing peace, tranquility, and divine wisdom. The elaborate use of gold highlights the Buddha's spiritual vitality.
Sitting in peaceful meditation on a richly decorated throne, Gautama Siddhartha Buddha represents his role as a teacher and the personification of enlightenment. The surrounding enlightened beings represent a community of spiritual guides who support and transmit the Dharma. Known for its compelling use of gold against a red background, the Nakthang style represents the Buddha's enlightenment and the transformative force of the Dharma. The enlightenment radiating from the Buddha is symbolized by the gold decorations that direct the viewer's attention to his features.
