Chitipati, Tibet, circa 1800

Chitipati is the pair of lovers known as Lord and Lady of the charnel ground whose dance represents the eternal dance of death, as well as the attainment of perfect consciousness, wisdom, compassion, and kindness. They wear crowns with five human skulls and depict a dynamic vision of death and transformation, a joyous freedom from attachment.

From the private collection of a Tibetan businessman and former monk currently living in Kathmandu.
