Khyentse Rinpoche, Shechen Monastery, Nepal

During the last years of Khyentse Rinpoche's life, Ricard traveled with him through India, Bhutan, Tibet, and Nepal, in the process creating a remarkable portrait of a great spiritual leader of our time. These Type-R prints are mounted on hand-molded Tibetan paper with an archival backing board. They bear colophon labels stamped with the seal of the Shechen Monasteries and are accompanied by the limited-edition book Journey to Enlightenment.
