A THANGKA DEPICTING SCENES FROM THE AVADANAKALPALATA


TIBET, 18TH CENTURYDistemper on cloth; recto with cartouches in Tibetan gold script identifying the various scenes. Himalayan Art Resources item no.7942 Image: 80 x 52.5 cm (32 x 21 in.);With silks: 147 x 80 cm (58 x 31 1/2 in.)
|Surrounding Shakyamuni at the center, this thangka depicts six animated jatakas from the 11th-century Avadanakalpalata by Kshemendra. These correspond to chapters 41 to 46, namely: (41) The conversion of King Udrayana (42) The Results of Pandita's Generosity (43) The Pure Conduct of King Kanakavarna (44) Hiranyapani's Hands of Gold, a story about actions in a previous birth (45) Ajatashatru's Treachery, the evil deeds of a king and the consequences (46) Kritajna Discovers the Power of Truth Whereas, three or four scenes are usually represented on Avadana thangkas, the six occurring here are a testament to the skilled draftsmen who conceived of this more complex composition without dwarfing the main figure. See other examples from Avadana sets in see Wang, Classics of the Forbidden City: Tangka Painting in the Collection of the Palace Museum, Beijing, 2011, p.149, no. 111; HAR set no. 874; and similar example recently sold at Bonhams, London, 11 May 2017, lot 13. Provenance Private Collection, USA, acquired in the 1980s 釋迦牟尼佛源流唐卡 西藏,十八世紀 布本設色;每場景附金色藏文題記。 喜馬拉雅藝術資源網7942號 畫心:80 X 52.5釐米(32 X 21英吋); 裝裱:147 X 80釐米(58 X 31 1/2英吋) 300,000-500,000港元 環繞着端坐於畫心中央的釋迦牟尼為六個佛陀轉世故事場景,來自十一世紀詩人迦西門德拉所寫的譬喻集。此處的六個故事分別對應四十一至四十六章: 第41章 《仙道王故事》 第42章 《童賢故事》 第43章 《金色王故事》 第44章 《金手故事》 第45章 《阿闍王弒父故事》 第46章 《知恩故事》 此唐卡構圖複雜、布局合理。一般此類源流唐卡大多只繪有三至四個場景,但此作品包括了六個場景,足證畫師造詣高深。其他佛源流唐卡可參見王家鵬,《故宮經典:故宮唐卡圖典》,北京,2011年,頁149,111號,或喜馬拉雅藝術資源網874號 。類似作品亦曾售於邦瀚斯,倫敦,2017年5月11日,拍品13號。 來源 美國私人珍藏,於80年代購入
