The style of this cabinet is known as gya-ri in Tibetan, meaning “Chinese style”, as while it was almost certainly painted by a Tibetan artist for a Tibetan home, the inspiration for the design is definitely Chinese. The central panels, for example, depict a group of Chinese nobles at a table and, on the right, a person sitting, meditating, under a branch of a tree in Chinese style. The lower panels show birds, an elephant and a tiger in their environment, and the upper and side panels are filled with trees, branches and flowers. |
