Introduction to Thangka
A thangka is a sacred scroll painting used in Tibetan Buddhism to convey spiritual teachings and facilitate meditation. Traditionally hand-painted on cotton canvas or silk, these artworks depict deities, mandalas, and religious narratives with intricate detail and symbolic depth. Thangkas are usually kept rolled up and framed with textile backings for protection, requiring proper care and dry storage to preserve their brilliance and longevity.
