Visual Summary

Brief Description

A central seated figure with long hair and jewelry, surrounded by smaller figures in a grid

Detailed Description

This artwork depicts a large central figure surrounded by sixteen smaller figures arranged in a grid-like pattern against a predominantly green and red background. The central figure is seated cross-legged on a multi-layered, petal-shaped seat, which rests on an ornate base. This figure has pale skin, long dark hair, and an elaborate gold headdress. They wear multiple gold necklaces, armbands, and bracelets. The left hand holds a small, ornate vessel, while the right hand is raised near the chest. Behind the central figure is a large, colorful archway with intricate patterns and a smaller, seated figure at its apex. The sixteen surrounding figures are depicted within individual frames. The top row features three figures: one directly above the central arch and two on either side, all seated. The left and right columns each contain two seated figures. The bottom row displays five figures, some seated and some in active standing or kneeling poses. These smaller figures exhibit a variety of skin tones, attire, and gestures. Some wear simple, draped garments, while others are depicted with less clothing and more elaborate adornments. The frames for these figures are mostly red ovals or rectangles, set against a green field. Gold accents are prominent throughout the entire composition, highlighting details on figures, jewelry, and architectural elements.
