Mahakala Tibetan Thangka – Hand-Painted by Tibetan Master Artist | Natural Mineral Pigments | Lapis Lazuli Textured Effects | Solid Wood Frame

This museum-quality Mahakala Tibetan Thangka is an exceptional work created by a renowned Tibetan master artist, using traditional mineral pigments and a unique artistic technique where coarse-grain lapis lazuli (青金石) is applied to create a three-dimensional, textured sacred presence.

The painting features a 50 × 50 cm artwork core, mounted in an elegant 66.5 × 66.5 × 3 cm solid wood frame, making it ready for display in homes, meditation spaces, art galleries, or private collections.

Mahakala’s face is rendered with extraordinary precision—ferocious, powerful, expressive, and fully alive, embodying the fierce compassion that protects practitioners from obstacles and negativity.

Mahakala — The Fierce Protector of Tibetan Buddhism

Mahakala, the “Great Black One,” is one of the most important wrathful deities in Tibetan Buddhism.
He symbolizes:

• Protection from negative forces

• Clearing obstacles on the spiritual path

• Unshakeable strength and determination

• Wisdom that destroys ignorance

His intense presence represents compassion in its most powerful form—the ability to remove all hindrances that block spiritual growth.

This painting captures Mahakala’s traditional iconography with exceptional accuracy and profound energy.
