2. Erberto Lo Bue is Associate Professor at the University of Bologna, where he teaches history of Indian and Central Asian art as well as classical Tibetan at the Department of Linguistic and Oriental Studies. He has carried our fieldwork in Nepal since 1972 and Tibet since 1987. Most of his publications are related to Tibetan and Himalayan art.
Abstract“Lo”, as Mustang is called by those who dwell there, is a small area in the Nepal Himalaya. Buddhist art flourished here, particularly between the 14th and the 16th century, in a cultural environment strongly influenced by the religious order of Sakya, the great monastic fortress in southwest Tibet. This volume, the first monograph on the artistic heritage of Lo, deals with the most representative features of the religious art of the region: mural painting, sculpture, and architecture. It also illustrates the restoration work carried out in important temples at Möntang, the capital of Lo.
