Los 227 | John Eskenazi/Sam Fogg, "Tibetan Elemental Divination Paintings: Illuminated Manuscripts from The White Beryl of Sangs-rgyas RGya-mtsho with the Moonbeams treatise of Lo-chen Dharmasri''
''Tibetan Elemental Divination Paintings: Illuminated Manuscript from the White Beryl of Sangs-rgyas rGya-mtsho with the 'Moonbeams' treatise of Lo-chen Dharmasri'' - John Eskenazi in association with Sam Fogg, 2001 - First edition, 2001. 432-Page folio, including fold-outs, features high quality color reproductions of illuminated manuscripts from the White Beryl. Orange cloth covers, in display box. - This extraordinary publication represents a landmark in both Tibetan studies and the art of bookmaking. It presents for the first time two magnificent 18-century manuscripts illuminating in exquisite detail little-known practices of elemental divination as described in The White Beryl -- an important 17-century treatise written by Sangs-rgyas rGya-mtsho (1653-1705), regent to the Fifth Dalai Lama. The manuscripts depict the zodiac of Indian astrology, the cakra diagrams of martial conquest, and the elaborate charts of Chinese elemental divination. Accompanying the images is a detailed summary of the White Beryl text, an extensive commentary, and the first English translation of a related text known as Moonbeams. Meticulously researched and produced to the highest standard, this book will be of immense interest not only to Tibetan scholars but to all those fascinated by Oriental art, religions and astrology. From a European private collection, acquired prior to 2007 Minor wear
