Country Group: The Himalayas (Tibet, Nepal, Mongolia and Other)
This exceptionally rare set of 16 antique Tibetan illuminated manuscript pages showcases the richness of Himalayan folk art and script tradition. Each page—measuring 7.75" x 2.75"—features finely rendered calligraphy alongside vivid animal illustrations, totaling 30 individual hand-painted images. Created on aged, beautifully textured paper, these double-sided leaves offer a remarkable glimpse into early Tibetan devotional or instructional manuscripts. Their expressive, whimsical imagery makes them ideal for mounting and framing, whether individually or as a curated grouping. Acquired in the 1990s, this collection represents an increasingly scarce form of Tibetan artistic heritage seldom seen complete.
