Mustang: An Exhibition of Paintings and Photographs in Nepal


Courtyard Elevation of Kuthu Math,
Bhaktapur,
Robert Powell,
75 x 55 cm.,
watercolor and pen.


Collection Götz Hagmüller. Copies available in poster format. Woodcarving, as the detail in the facade of this handsome building illustrates, is one of the fine arts of Nepal. The pigeons, whose nesting boxes are beneath the main window, are like the monastery itself, dedicated to Shiva.
