Chorten from the Imaginary Museum: Tintin's lama in Tibet
The great lama Chorten is represented in his Tibetan monastic robe, the ocher-red color of Buddhist monks, in the posture of calm wisdom that Hergé gave him in Tintin in Tibet. The hand-painted resin recreates the folds of the fabric, the headdress, and the expression of a character who knows things that others do not and chooses to keep it to himself.
Tintin in Tibet is the album in which Hergé worked the most on the setting and atmosphere. Chorten is a key figure, and his representation in resin restores the graphic quality that Hergé invested in the characters of this story.
The character of Tintin in Tibet, album of maturity
Tintin in Tibet is regularly cited as Hergé's most personal work. Chorten is one of the central figures. Its presence in a Musée Imaginaire collection indicates that the collector has a particular affinity for this album.
Excluding active catalogue. Numbered, original box and certificate.
