Nevari is the term for the architecture and aesthetics of the Neva people of Nepal. Inhabitants of the Kathmandu valley, the Neva people are known for their love of well-defined lines and solid, statement colours. The thangka that you see on this page is atypical of the Nevari aesthetic. It depicts the seated Shakyamuniv in the bhoomisparsha stance.
Gautama Buddha is clad in a peach-coloured low-wound dhoti whose hems are bare till the mid-foreleg. It reveals the smooth gold of the complexion of His body. The same is defined by sharp, stately curves. The crown and adornments of Siddhartha Gautama are characterised by intricate jewel-work, which is a staple of the Nevari aesthetic.
The back of the Buddha’s throne is predominated by rich tones of crimson. A network of the dense vine in pale gold colour along the upper edge, and a colourful facial motif resembling Kirtimukha. The solid-coloured background in deep Prussian blue and the multicoloured lotus petals along the front of the throne are hallmarks of the authentic Nevari thangka.
