Collection Sutra
- Part of The Met x Ann Gish collection.
- Inspired by a Chinese sutra cover from the 16th century. Sutras printed in the accordion-fold format were often encased by covers wrapped in decorative silks. Covers both protected the sacred words and presented the sutras in beautiful envelopes that signaled the importance of the contents within.
