| description | Introduction. The article deals with an item contained in the Buddhist Collection of Tatarstan’s National Museum. Buddhist art is essentially canonical, which sets forth some difficulties to be faced when it comes to refer certain pieces to different regional schools. Goals. The paper attempts a comparative analysis of the Buddhist statuette from the National Museum of Tatarstan and suggests an attribution of the unique item. Results. The analysis shows the figurine (inv. no. КП-10367/9) depicts a Mongolian Lama. It is headdress that proves a most significant element since the former is characteristic of Jebtsundamba Khutuktus of Khalkha. So, our further insights do attest to the statuette depicts a Bodg Gegeen of Mongolia. And there is reason to presume this is an early sculptural portrait of the 8th Bodg Gegeen — Jebtsundamba Khutuktu of Khalkha. |
