Ngor Painting
Tibetan Buddhist Encyclopedia is now 14 years old
Our Encyclopedia recently received a wonderful opportunity for a major renewal on its 14th birthday . After many years of growing our Encyclopedia had become bit slow and sometimes even decided not to answer when people knocked on the door.
A very big thank you and blessings to Dmytro Rudiy (rudiy.nl) for his great work in upgrading the server, website and all of the infrastructure and helping make TBE fast and reliable again for everyone!
We kindly ask our readers to help us cover the cost of this important upgrade and also help with the ongoing costs of keeping the Encyclopedia alive and freely available.

An Introduction To Ngor Painting" in the catalogue notes" "As the seat of the Sakya lineage lies along the heavily traveled trade route between the Kathmandu Valley and Lhasa, the region was perfectly situated to absorb artistic influences from India and Nepal to the west, and China to the east.
Through the discerning partonage of later Sakya rulers, the artists of Ngor Monastery produced a multitude of distinguished paintings, recognized evan at the time as works of the highest caliber."
There are believed to be thirty paintings in this set from Ngor Monastery.
