Hand-Painted Shakyamuni Buddha Thangka | Tibetan Meditation Art, Nepal

This original old oil-varnished Thangka depicts Shakyamuni Gautama Buddha, the historical Buddha and revered founder of Buddhism. Hand-painted on handmade cotton canvas using natural stone pigments, this piece carries both spiritual depth and artistic beauty.

Shakyamuni Buddha — also known as Siddhartha Gautama — was born in Lumbini, Nepal, in the 6th century B.C.E. Renouncing his royal life, he sought to understand the cause of suffering and attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. His teachings laid the foundation for what we now call modern-day Buddhism.
