Paradise and plumage : Chinese connections in Tibetan Arhat painting
The 16 Arhats are considered to have been either the actual disciples of the Buddha or followers who lived soon after his time. Featuring descriptions of artworks accompanied by color photographs, this exhibition catalog explores the relationship between Chinese and Tibetan images of these enlightened, more-than-human, beings. The volume has been published in conjunction with an exhibition of the same name which is being held at the Rubin Museum of Art in New York in 2004
