The Divine Art Of Tibet

Colorful, peaceful, beautiful, and optimistic, The Divine Art of Tibet 2007 calendar is a stunning tribute to Tibetan Buddhist art and a powerful testament to an ancient spirituality threatened by modern politics. Many of these exquisite renderings of gurus and pastorals photographed on the walls of Samye, an eighth-century temple regarded as the birthplace of Tibetan Buddhism, have been kept from the public eye for twelve centuries and are published here for the first time. Calendar is endorsed by Tibet House, the popular and worthwhile nonprofit organization devoted to the preservation of Tibetan culture. The perfect gift both for people attracted to the serene, calming art and for people with a deeper interest in Tibetan culture.
