Brief Description

A central seated figure in red and gold robes, surrounded by many smaller figures in a colorful border

Detailed Description

This vertical painting depicts a central, seated figure surrounded by a complex border of smaller figures and decorative motifs. The main figure, with light skin and dark hair, faces forward, wearing a red robe draped over a yellow patterned garment. Their right hand extends downwards with an open palm, while the left hand rests in their lap, holding a small, dark object. The figure is seated on a multi-layered lotus throne with blue, green, and red petals. Behind them, a large red archway is adorned with intricate gold swirling patterns and green mythical creatures, possibly dragons or makaras, with a green halo encircling the figure's head. Flanking the central archway are two standing figures, one on each side, rendered in lighter tones. Below the lotus throne, a decorative base features several small figures and animals, including lions, elephants, horses, and a monkey. The entire central composition is enclosed within a wide, multi-colored border. This border is segmented into numerous individual compartments, each containing a seated figure. Ten small, seated figures are arranged across the top edge. Along the left and right sides, vertical columns each contain approximately ten seated figures. The bottom border features five larger compartments, each depicting one or more figures, some appearing active or with intense expressions. The artwork employs a rich color palette, predominantly featuring reds, blues, greens, and gold.
