未知

A thangka depicting Green Tārā seated at centre, rendered in vibrant mineral pigments and surrounded by attendant figures, masters and narrative scenes within a mountainous landscape setting. Below, the wrathful protector Six-Armed Mahākāla appears enflamed within a halo of fire, trampling obstacles and flanked by subsidiary scenes. The composition follows a traditional Central Tibetan painting idiom, combining a hierarchical arrangement with rich episodic vignettes.
The thangka retains its original textile mounting of orange brocade, now worn and with areas of loss, consistent with prolonged ritual use. The reverse bears an extensive Tibetan inscription in cursive script, likely dedicatory and liturgical in nature, together with additional later Chinese characters relating to storage or transport. The pigments exhibit natural craquelure, and the overall presentation suggests monastic or lineage use.

【描述】
一幅唐卡描绘了中央坐着的绿度母，用鲜艳的矿物颜料绘制，并被侍从、大师和叙事场景包围在一个山景环境中。下方，愤怒的护法六臂玛哈嘎拉出现在火焰光环中，踩踏障碍物，并由附属场景环绕。构图遵循传统的中藏绘画风格，结合了层次结构和丰富的片段性插图。
唐卡保留了原来的橙色锦缎装裱，现已磨损并有部分缺失，符合长期仪式使用的情况。背面有大量草书藏文题记，可能是献词和礼仪性质的，还有一些后来的中文字符，可能与存储或运输有关。颜料表现出自然的龟裂，整体呈现表明其曾用于寺院或传承。
