Tibet, 19th century
A Thangka of an Indian Scholar
The scholar seated on a low throne and holding a manuscript in one hand, wearing patchwork robes and a pandita headdress, reaching for the table to his right, two attendants to the side, all set in a mountainous landscape, a stream with cranes and ducks in the foreground, ribbon-like clouds with white Manjushri
