Thangkas are traditional Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhist paintings on cloth, usually crafted from silk or cotton. These artifacts hold spiritual and religious significance, while also being appreciated as beautiful works of art.

Maitreya Buddha, also known as Future Buddha or the Buddha of Loving-Kindness, is significant in Mahayana Buddhism. He is the next Buddha to appear, succeeding Gautama Buddha. His name, "Maitreya," means "loving-kindness" or "friendliness."

In Maitreya Thangka Painting, he is depicted wearing the saffron-colored robes of a monk, symbolizing renunciation and detachment from worldly desires. He is adorned with various jewels and ornaments, representing his divine qualities and spiritual attainment. Maitreya displays the Dharma wheel mudra, where his hands are held at the heart level with the thumbs and index fingers forming a circle. This mudra symbolizes the turning of the wheel of teaching.
