In this ink wash painting derived from a comic, TinTin encounters a scene where he is greeted by a group of lamas, and later in the story, he is about to receive a khata bestowed by a khenpo. The blend of Tibetan Buddhism, Western figures, and Chinese ink painting enhances the dramatic quality of the medium, reflecting the current chaotic and diverse reality of the outside world.
