Tibetan Sacred Art The Heritage of Tantra

In the Tibetan highlands Buddhism flowered in the form known as Lamaism, and the presence of religious art in Tibet has been universal, extending even to remote and secluded regions. This comprehensive treatise examines this artistic heritage, aided by copious color plates and line drawings. The iconography of the great Buddhist masters and saints is presented and the mystic and revelatory functions of Tibetan religious art is elucidated.Lauf, Detlef Ingo is the author of 'Tibetan Sacred Art The Heritage of Tantra', published 2003 under ISBN 9789748921877 and ISBN 9748921875.
