The richly coloured mandala depicting within a dorje-tipped square within a circle at it’s centre, a wrathful deity (6 armed Blue Mahakala?) in yabyum with his sakti. Within a further blue circle, a complex lotus flower unfolds – each of it’s petals bearing wrathful deities in yabyum. This circle is in turn enclosed by a square, within the corners of which are matter-filled skulls surrounded by flames. Further dharmapala figures in yabyum protect the ‘gates’ which lead into a rich diaper patterened ‘garden’ – the gates flanked by the tines of a dorje emitting from the mouth of a makara. Buddhist parasols flank the gates. The whole enclosed by a ring of multi-hued petals further encircled by a surround of scrolling, stylised ‘flames’. A Dark blue background surrounds the whole. Indigo cotton mounts. Two small lama’s seals and an inscription to the reverse. Leather suspension thong.
