The depiction shows Vajrapani, an important protective figure in tantric Buddhism, in bright blue with an expressive facial expression. His energetic posture is emphasised by flowing robes and a blazing aura of flames. His head is adorned with a death crown, while in one hand he holds the vajra, the symbol of indestructible wisdom. The colourful composition of blue, gold, red and orange creates a powerful, almost supernatural aura that underlines the spiritual significance of this figure.
