Visual Summary

Brief Description

A large seated figure with a halo, surrounded by many smaller figures arranged in a grid

Detailed Description

The image displays a vertical textile painting, framed by dark fabric at the top and bottom, with a light brown strap attached at the top. The central painted area features a large, light-skinned figure seated cross-legged on a multi-layered lotus throne. This figure has short dark hair and wears a patterned red robe over a yellow garment. The right hand is raised with the thumb and forefinger touching, while the left hand rests in the lap, holding a small, light-colored bowl. A light blue halo encircles the head, and a larger green and blue aura surrounds the body, all set against a red background within an elaborate archway. The central figure is flanked by multiple rows of smaller, seated figures. There are three columns of these figures on each side of the central archway, and two rows above it, totaling approximately 30 figures. Each small figure is depicted within a circular or arched frame, mostly wearing orange or red robes, and many hold small objects such as books or bowls. Below the central lotus throne, a decorative base features small white stylized animals and colorful patterns in red, blue, and green. Further below, a row of approximately ten additional small figures, some with multiple arms or blue skin, are depicted in various poses within individual frames. The entire painted section is bordered by a blue band with intricate patterns in red, orange, and green.
