Tracing in Himalayan Art: Vajradhara & Mahasiddhas

Another example of tracing can be seen with the first painting in a set of Eighty-four Mahasiddha paintings. The first painting depicts Vajradhara at the center surrounded by four siddhas and three deities. Note the inclusion of mountains on painting #65420 where they are absent on painting #99215.



The two paintings are HAR #65420 and HAR #99215
