This is the publication celebrating the exhibition at the Bowers of Museum of Tibet: Treasures From the Roof of the World. This remarkable exhibition was comprised of masterworks, many of which are central to the history and culture of Tibetan Buddhism. The influence of Buddhism on all aspects of Tibetan life can be seen in the many devotional and secular objects included, exploring the unique historical, religious and cultural achievements of this region. Gorgeous color photographs with descriptions and historical context of the objects, what they were used for, who used them and why, and how they have come down through the centuries. A treasure of information about Tibetan art.
