This door probably stood at the entrance to a small shrine dedicated to Mahakala, a fierce protector deity popular in many Tibetan Buddhist traditions. Protector deities often have their own shrines. The door consists of two panels framed by a lintel and jamb with decorations typical of wooden portals to protector chapels. The lintel and jamb have multicolored and layered “checkered” carvings and images of vajras and skulls. The decoration on the panels depicts faces of Mahakala and offerings like barley cakes (torma). Such images served as offerings to the deity and indicated a restricted access to the chapel. Title Wrathful Shrine Doors Dimensions 84 3/4 × 64 7/8 × 16 1/2 in. Medium Wood, cloth, pigments, gesso, varnish Origin: Kham Region, Eastern Tibet Classification(s) furniture architectural elements. ca.19th century Rubin Museum of Himalayan Art

Good luck to the #RubinMuseum in its new stage!! Weirdly, the museum that activated the most harmonious relationship between the collection and the space is now probably forced to give up its physical location. May this not be the end✨ rubinmuseum.org/transformati...
