Four seated, gold-skinned figures sit within haloes, each framed against fields of royal blue and vermilion red. Jewelled necklaces mark the figures, and one holds a lotus bud, a detail that anchors the calm, repeated rhythm of the grid. Parchment tan forms the ground, with ink black outlines and gold ochre accents running through every panel. The catalogue number 55.121.38 sits on the leaf as a small visible numeral.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning \u0026amp; Symbolism\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kalpasutra is among the most sacred texts in Jain tradition, preserving the biographies of the Jinas and read aloud during the Paryushana festival by monks and laypeople alike. The vigil depicted marks the protective rituals and celestial observances surrounding Mahavira's early life, a narrative that signals his destiny as a conqueror of passions and a guide toward liberation from rebirth. The folio comes from western India, from the manuscript workshops that produced this regional painting style before Mughal influence arrived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere the Sticker Lives\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKiss-cut means this artwork is cut to its own outline, so the figures and grid read as a single shape rather than a rectangle with a border. Its backing stays intact until peeled, which suits placement on smooth, flat surfaces such as laptops, journals and windows. For collectors of Jain manuscript art, it turns an everyday surface into a small, close-viewed folio.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Sticker Space","offers":[{"title":"2 Inch \/ Transparent","offer_id":48529891197146,"sku":"29508374973791793159","price":2.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Inch \/ White","offer_id":48529891229914,"sku":"17565313272409510615","price":2.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Inch \/ Transparent","offer_id":48529891262682,"sku":"17292118036353723275","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Inch \/ White","offer_id":48529891295450,"sku":"28213963923904475540","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 Inch \/ Transparent","offer_id":48529891328218,"sku":"61571064778998723306","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 Inch \/ White","offer_id":48529891360986,"sku":"26085878324810661415","price":3.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Inch \/ Transparent","offer_id":48529891393754,"sku":"20516449895336111395","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Inch \/ White","offer_id":48529891426522,"sku":"13243691538828523575","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0493\/3949\/8646\/files\/unknown-vigil-on-the-sixth-night-after-mahaviras-birth-folio-from-a-kalpasutra-manuscript-15th-century-v2-sticker-vinyl-kiss-cut-decal-unknown-alt-3.webp?v=1788132638","url":"https:\/\/thestickerspace.com\/products\/unknown-vigil-on-the-sixth-night-after-mahaviras-birth-folio-from-a-kalpasutra-manuscript-15th-century-v2-sticker-vinyl-kiss-cut-decal","provider":"The Sticker Space","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
