Thangka (tempera on canvas), Vaishravana seated in armor on his snow lion, holding his standard and a mongoose spitting jewels. He is flanked by two princely beings, whose iconography is identified by G. Tucci as nagas representing subterranean riches. He sits in the middle of his Alakavati palace, composed of four enclosures inhabited by various deities, in front of which several Buddhist offerings are placed. On the reverse, the Tibetan inscription 'five hundred and four'.
