專家說明

This image of Treton Tsewang Tsultrim shows him as a Bon teacher wearing the traditional lotus hat of a Bon monastic scholar, an symbol of his rank as a fully ordained monk "drangsong." The hats typically have four, six, eight or ten petals when depicted in sculpture. On the verso, the inscription in Tibetan script translates to "Homage to Treton Tsewang Tsultrim!"
