The present painting depicts Bhaisajyaguru, the Medicine Buddha, seated
in a palace in the pure land of Vaiduryanirbhasa. He clutches the stem
of an aruna fruit in his right hand, and supports a medicine bowl in his
left. Within the grounds of the palace, he is surrounded by a multitude of
buddhas and devotees gathered to hear their teachings. Outside the palace
grounds, numerous monks and siddhas meditate in their cave and mountain
hermitages. The triangular-form mountains and Chinese-style landscape
indicate the present painting was likely painted in the eastern regions of Tibet.
