Detailed Description
A colorful village scene features multi-story buildings, rocky terrain, and numerous figures. The upper portion shows a light blue sky with a green band below it, featuring stylized green plants and small red and purple flowers. Several multi-story buildings, constructed with white brick-like patterns and red horizontal bands, rise from the rocky landscape. Many of these buildings have small, dark rectangular windows and are topped with white domed structures or small turrets. The middle ground is dominated by undulating brown rocky hills, also dotted with stylized green plants. In the lower left, a group of four men is gathered under an orange canopy supported by poles. One man, dressed in blue, kneels on the ground, facing right, while others stand around him. To their right, a man in an orange tunic leads a brown horse into a white arched entrance built into the rocky hill. Above this archway, a blue staircase ascends the brown hill, leading to another arched opening. On the right side of the image, another man, wearing a light purple tunic and a dark turban, walks towards the right, holding a leash attached to a dark, dog-like animal. Further right and slightly lower, a man in an orange robe and turban sits cross-legged within a white alcove that has a domed roof and a golden finial. He faces left, appearing to read from a book or scroll.
