The collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London includes an embroidered thangka that probably derives from Inner Mongolia and dates to the period c. 1780-1850. The thangka has a silk ground material and embroidery worked with silk thread. There are some traces of painting.
According to the curatorial information of the V&A, the thangka depicts Palden Llamo, one (and the only female) of the Eight Great Protectors of Religion (Dharmapala).
