The affable Prakash knows all there is to know about the prestigious art of thangkas, Tibetan Buddhist paintings. He sells a selection of beautiful, fair-trade pieces. If you can't afford to buy a piece, come and see for yourself! Ask him to show you the most beautiful pieces; he'll explain them to you in impeccable French. The key to appreciating the quality of a thangka lies in four details: the iconography, the finesse of the silver and gold details, the facial expressions and the overall aesthetic.
