Provenance:Schoettle Ostasiatica, Stuttgart, 1982Michael Henss Collection, ZurichOne of the best-preserved paintings from the famous Ngor lamdre lineage set, this near-pristine composition depicts Mahasiddha Damarupa, 'The Drummer'. According to traditional accounts, Damarupa trained under Kanha at every potent charnel ground and site of tantric power in India, prompting his zestful depiction. In addition to being the third mortal master of the lamdre tradition, Damarupa is a renowned adept of the important Chakrasamvara Tantra, which the composition alludes to through the pair of Chakrasamvara deities from differing teaching traditions in the corners at either side of his ornate throne-back. His eponymous damaru, a double-sided hand drum, embodies one of three principal ritual instruments of a tantric practitioner, alongside the vajra and ghanta (bell). Formed by attaching two craniums of enlightened masters, the drum, in the context of Chakrasamvara Tantra, is the Prajna (wisdom) to which the male applies his skillful means (i.e. compassion) activating the union of these two highest Buddhist principles (Huntington & Bangdel, The Circle of Bliss, 2003, no. 106). With modulations from soft to loud and slow to rapid beats, Damarupa, as the drum's archetypal practitioner, is able to produce a single tone that summons all Buddhas, inspiring them with supreme joy (Beer, The Encyclopedia of Tibetan Symbols and Motifs, 1999, p. 258).At the center of the painting, Damarupa whips the pair of golden clappers against the drum with a flick of his wrist. The drum's long tassel of jade beads, gems, gold fastenings, and tri-colored silk streamers trail in countermovement. The painter repeats its flurried arc with the extension of Damarupa's left leg, which, coupled with a half-cocked elbow gingerly cradling a skull cup full of nectar, deftly conveys the peripatetic drummer in a half-seated-half-dancing liminal posture. Airy crimson sashes twirl around his arms and knees, and spiral before his feet. Damarupa's piercing, bloodshot brown eyes and excited grin invite the viewer to hear the 'sound of great bliss' he has produced for all those that can perceive it. He wears a crown of five emblazoned gems borne alternately from Indian lotuses and Chinese peonies. The colored order of each gemstone correlates to the surrounding structure of green, red, and blue aureoles of perfect Newari scrollwork. Meanwhile, his black hair wrapped in an intricate bone lattice is pulled up into a trilobed bun that echoes the edge of the throne-back above him, further harmonizing with the mahasiddha's visage.Twenty-six vividly executed portraits comprising the 'Chandali Perfection Stage Lineage' surround Damarupa in formal rows along the top and side registers. This secondary lineage within the painting is one of over thirty traditional Sakya tantric lineages for which Ngor claimed to excel. Delightful details abound throughout the depicted succession of masters, including Vajra Ghantapa's mid-air tantric sexual congress with his consort (3), and the founder of the Sakya tradition, Sachen Kunga Nyingpo's, aqua cloak and strigine tufts of hair (12).
TANGKA REPRÉSENTANT LE PORTRAIT DE KANHATIBET CENTRAL, MONASTÈRE DE NGOR, VERS 1600 Distemper on cloth; with original blue cloth mounts inscribed on the reverse along the top in Tibetan, identifying the painting's subject, and also with restored original red lacquered, gold painted dowel rod; verso inscribed in black ink with 'om, ah, hum' incantations behind each figure and many lines arranged into the form of a stupa, comprising Sanskritized and Tibetan prayers and mantras consistent with a formula repeated throughout the Ngor lamdre lineage set of paintings; recto with two separate lines of Tibetan inscription in gold along the bottom red painted border, the second identifying the secondary 'Crooked Made Straight Lineage' sequence of figures within the painting, the first an homage to the central subject, translated:'With the profound advice, release my mind,Performing the benefit of othersWith the practice of vows;To Kanha, I bow.'Himalayan Art Resources item no. 1443 Image: 74.5 x 62.8 cm (29 3/8 x 24 3/4 in.); With Silks: 124 x 66 cm (48 3/4 x 26 in.)Footnotes:A PORTRAIT THANGKA OF KANHACENTRAL TIBET, NGOR MONASTERY, CIRCA 1600藏中 俄爾寺 約 1600 年 坎哈巴肖像唐卡 Published:Marion Boyer, La peinture bouddhiste tibétaine, Paris, 2010, p. 132. Provenance:Private German Collection, acquired in Nepal, 1970sMichael Henss Collection, Zurich, acquired from the above in 2008 A frequent praise of the widely published Ngor lamdre lineage set of paintings that includes this portrait of Kanha is the insightful, nuanced capturing of each central subject's character and legacy. Here, the mahasiddha's soft wispy eyebrows and facial hair frame a calm, encouraging expression befitting Kanha's standing as the principal exponent of the lamdre tradition's 'gradual method'. He is one of the most popular of the 84 Indian tantric great adepts and his epithet (Tib. Nagpopa; 'The Black One') is ascribed to numerous tantric teachings. Kanha occupies a prominent role in the lamdre tradition as the primary disciple of the tradition's first mortal master, Virupa. Before meeting Virupa, Kanha was a Hindu Shaivite yogin and upon the completion of his training was dispatched to convert a lustful Hindu king and court.The artist portrays Kanha cradling a human skull-cup (kapala) before his chest, which is a fairly ubiquitous attribute used when depicting the early Indian masters of Buddhist tantra. Similar to Kanha's own story, the kapala is rooted in Buddhism's repudiation of the Hindu caste system, its Brahmanical hierarchy, and its seemingly inflexible doctrine of spiritual evolution. The punishment for inadvertently killing a brahmin in Kanha's time was a severe ostracism in which the penitent was banished for twelve years to a desolate crossroads (like a charnel ground) and forced to beg for food with a human skull as an alms bowl, as well as the skull of the brahmin they had slain mounted on a wood staff as a banner (Beer, The Encyclopedia of Tibetan Symbols and Motifs, 1999, p. 249). A profound expression of Tantric Buddhism's antinomian nature, in which things that would be regarded as polluting in Indian culture are put to use to overcome dualities and transcend the fetters of existence, the kapala serves as a seminal ritual implement in tantric practice. Painted in royal-yellow swells, the artist depicts the elixir of immortality that tantric treatises (sadhanas) often say is contained within the inverted cranium. Kanha balances the kapala with effortless poise while articulating his fingers in the dharmachakrapavartina mudra of 'progressing the Dharma', which is likely another allusion to his role as the principal exponent of the 'gradual' lamdre method.Unlike the depiction of his disciple, Damarupa, or any other mahasiddha in the Ngor lamdre lineage set of c. 1600, Kanha's matted locks are piled up in the form of an ushnisha surmounted by a lotus-borne, wish-fulfilling gem (cintamani). This feature likens Kanha to the peaceful supremely enlightened Amitabha and Amitayus Buddhas located over his shoulders. Similarly, the painter clads Kanha in fine garments and jewelry that are essential features in the depiction of a buddha's samboghakaya form, its celestial 'reward body' resulting from advanced spiritual attainment. The delicate gold floral sprays patterning the crimson lower garment are redolent of luxurious embroidered silks. Nonetheless, the archetypal tantric trainee, Kanha, having achieved Buddhahood through tantric means, is bedecked, not in gold, but intricate lattices of human bone and a crown of dried skulls.
