EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite White Tara, a folio from an early 12th-century manuscript known as the Ashtasahasrika Prajnaparamita (Perfection of Wisdom). Created by an unknown artist, this masterpiece is a testament to the rich heritage art of Bengal in present-day Bangladesh. White Tara, a prominent figure in Mahayana Buddhism, is enshrined within flames that symbolize purity and transformation. Her hand gestures, or mudras, convey grace and compassion as she sits serenely with three people surrounding her. The opulent use of opaque watercolor on palm leaf brings vibrant colors to life, highlighting every intricate detail. The calligraphy accompanying the portrait adds depth to this religious artwork. The text represents sacred teachings and wisdom passed down through generations. This piece exemplifies the fusion of spirituality and artistic expression that flourished during this period in Hindoostan (India). Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this rare artifact serves as a window into ancient Buddhist practices and beliefs. Its presence not only preserves history but also inspires contemplation and reflection on one's own spiritual journey. As we gaze upon this remarkable image captured by Heritage Images, we are transported back in time to witness the devotion and reverence bestowed upon White Tara—a timeless embodiment of enlightenment and compassion.
