| 1983.225 | Flag | Tibetan prayer flags "from Liyang area in Yunnan called Wu" (according to note found with items). Probably collected at time of 1983 "Tibet: Roof of the World" exhibit. Found in collections without documentation. A: White cotton cloth with black ink block print. The cloth has finished left and right edges but the top and bottom edges are frayed. A rectangular block print features several rows of text written in a central Asian script. Three images occupy the central vertical axis of the print. Each is housed within a border. At the top is a deity, framed in a square. He is surrounded by fire and brandishes a sword in his right hand. He wears a neclace of beads and a headdress which may be composed of small skulls. At the center, framed in a square is a geometric design in the shape of an urn or altar. At the bottom, a dome shape (representing a stupa) frames a central Asian style stupa with several chatravelli at the top and two garlands. The cloth is heavily stained with watermarks that taked on a brownish-yellow color. H: 13.5"; W: 10" B: Yellow cotton cloth with black ink block print. The print is identical to that found on (A). The yellow dye is extremely faded in places, giving the cloth a streaked look. H: 13"; W: 10.625" C: Blue cotton cloth with black ink block print. The cloth is finished on the bottom edge but the remaining three sides are frayed. The print is composed almost entirely of text, approximately 35 rows of text which surrounds an image of a horse at the center. The horse is splendidly decorated and may represent the horse belonging to Prince Siddartha, the Buddha. H: 15.5"; W: 10.5" D: Large golden yellow cotton cloth with black ink block print, resembling a thangka. The print is very intricate, creating a cosmic scene of the realm of deities and buddhas. More than one thousand figures are represented, most of them surrounded by the mandala (or mandorla). The overall form is that of a tree with offbranches and an earthly scene below. Two rows of text are printed at the bottom. |
