Hardcover. Condition: Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Published to accompany the exhibition at Asia Week New York in 2013, this catalogue explores the rich artistic exchange between the Himalayas and China during a transformative era in Buddhist art. Robert Bigler, in collaboration with noted Tibetologist Dr. Amy Heller, presents a curated selection of sculptures and ritual objects that illustrate the transmission of Pala (Indian) and Nepalese aesthetics into the Chinese cultural sphere during the Yuan and early Ming dynasties. The catalogue distinguishes itself by focusing on: Ritual Implements: Unlike many sculpture-only books, this volume includes detailed studies of vajras (thunderbolts), ghantas (bells), and kila (ritual pegs), analyzing their craftsmanship and metal alloy composition. Transitional Styles: Documents the shift from the "pure" styles of the 12th century to the synthesized "Sino-Tibetan" style that solidified in the 15th century. Rare Iconography: Features scholarly entries on specific deities and teachers, supported by high-resolution photography that highlights the patina and casting details of the bronzes.

Soft cover. Condition: As New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Published in conjunction with the special exhibition held at Dickinson Roundell during Asia Week New York (March 2017), this scholarly catalogue offers a rare and focused examination of Buddhist metal sculpture from the Yuan and early Ming dynasties. Robert Bigler, a leading dealer and researcher in Zurich, addresses a complex and often overlooked period in art history—the "Tibeto-Chinese" style that flourished under Mongol rule and the transition to the Ming.

Iconography: Detailed entries on figures such as Shakyamuni, Green Tara, and various Mahasiddhas, analyzing the fusion of Pala (Indian), Nepali, and Chinese aesthetic elements.
