This print showcases a remarkable piece of art known as the "Painted Banner (Thangka) of Lineage Painting of Two Lamas in Debate" created around the year 1500. This exquisite thangka, originating from Tibet, beautifully captures the essence of Buddhist philosophy and education. In this vibrant painting, two lamas engage in an animated conversation while seated cross-legged in the lotus position.

The image portrays not only the depth of knowledge possessed by these revered teachers but also their dedication to passing on their wisdom to future generations. As symbols of enlightenment and guidance, these lamas hold a significant role within Tibetan society. The composition is further enhanced by the presence of deities depicted on colorful flags surrounding them, emphasizing their divine connection and authority as religious leaders. The artist's skillful use of pigment on cloth creates a visually stunning representation that captivates viewers with its beauty and cultural significance. This print serves as a window into both ancient traditions and timeless philosophies that continue to shape our understanding today.
