This monumental framed presentation features an antique Burmese prayer manuscript, richly adorned with gilt decoration and script, carefully mounted for display. The manuscript is composed of multiple joined leaves, each inscribed with lines of black lacquered calligraphy, set against a shimmering gold ground. Fine incised detailing surrounds the text, with panels of ornamental motifs and symbolic figures that underscore the sacred function of the work.
The manuscript has been professionally framed in the United States, set against a neutral linen mount and surrounded by a carved giltwood frame with bamboo-inspired design, enhancing both its presence and preservation. Measuring nearly ten feet in height, this exceptional piece is as architectural as it is devotional, making a striking statement on any wall.
Prayer manuscripts of this kind were traditionally commissioned as offerings to monasteries, created to accrue merit for the donor. Today, they are admired not only for their devotional significance but also for their craftsmanship and artistry. This framed example bridges sacred art and interior decoration, suitable for collectors of Asian manuscripts, museums, or those seeking a singular focal point for a large-scale interior project.
