Tibet – Maschera Mahakala Legno colorato
160,00 €
Maschera raffigurante Mahakala, il Grande Nero.
Divinità guardiana del dharma e corrispondente a Shiva per gli Induisti, in Tibetano è chiamato Nagpo Chenpo o Gonpo, ‘Signore, Protettore’.
Solitamente di colore nero, può essere anche colorata riprendendo la tradizione locale: elemento costante sono però i cinque teschi che adornano la sua corona, metafora dei dolori dell’uomo che si trasfigurano nei cinque Dhyani Buddha o Budda.
Intagliata in legno, i dettagli del viso sono molto ben delineati; sul retro, il residuo di ceralacca del sigillo doganale che ne testimonia l’autentica provenienza tibetana.
