TThe Thangkas presented by Belkar Co., are authentically hand painted by masters in Labrang Monastery བླ་བྲང་བཀྲ་དགོན་པ་, the largest monastery in the traditional Tibetan region of Amdo in Xiahe China. Each Thangka is painted by mineral materials to last thousands of years, and would take multiple painters years to finish each masterpiece.
We can provide the religious guidance when deciding the content of Thangka or even customize any content in gongbi painting style. Thangka is seen as an art piece before it is consecrated. Such service could be provided based on situations, but the normal Thangka is highly recommended for collection of art. Thangkas are traditionally kept unframed and rolled up when not on display, mounted on a textile backing somewhat in the style of Chinese scroll paintings, with a further silk cover on the front. Each Belkar Thangka have the option of mounting on the scroll, mounting in western frame style, or shipping it to buyer to mount locally. For shipping time, the finished Thangka can be packed ready in three days and customized art-piece takes around three months or plus according to the content.
The two Large sized Thangka in the gallery are Labrang Monastery Panorama and Subsidiary Monasteries of Labrang Monastery. The Large sized Thangka are PRINTED VERSION based on scanning of the original version.
