In the center is a mandala of concentric circles and squares enclosing a seated deity with one arm raised and holding a sword and the other forming a symbolic gesture in front of chest. One concentric ring contains four separate narrative scenes with figures, animals, mountains and a stupa.  Another ring is a band of cloud patterns in alternating red, blue, orange and green. Surrounding the exacting mandala is a ring of more freely drawn vegetation and clouds. Central motif flanked by two \"defenders of the religious law,\" or dharmapala in Sanskrit.  Both are blue scowling figures with a thrid-eye, disheveled hair, wearing crowns of skull and skirts of tiger skin, treading on naked human beings on top of a floral pedestal, and surrounded by windblown flames. The one on the right, holding a white elephant skin, has three heads and six arms. Behind each guardian are hills and mountains, rocks and vegetation, and a pair of apsara or bodhisattva figures in torso view descending from clouds; further above the sky are a leopard with dragon whiskers and serpentine body and a hawk-like creature with feathers."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Buffalo horn, pigments"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"0"},"media":{"label":"Media","value":"91.049.012_HFJ0516c_81676009"},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"Private prayer mandala"},"classification":{"label":"Classifications","value":"Paintings"},"people":{"label":"Artist / Maker / Culture","value":"Unidentified artist"},"primaryMedia":{"value":"https://emuseum.cornell.edu/internal/media/dispatcher/76290/full"},"culture":{"label":"Culture","value":"Tibet"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"19th century"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"189836"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"10 5/8 x 3 5/8 inches (27 x 9.2 cm)"}}]}
