Detailed Description
The image depicts an outdoor scene on a green, undulating hillside, framed by a dark blue and gold patterned border, and an outer peach-colored border. In the center foreground, a blue-skinned male figure with a gold crown and yellow cloth wrapped around his lower body sits cross-legged, holding a bow and arrow. To his left, a fair-skinned woman with dark hair and a white and pink garment sits on a pink, multi-petaled plant form, her arms raised. Facing them is a light brown, monkey-like figure with a red cloth wrapped around its lower body and a crown, holding a small white object. To the monkey-like figure's right stands a bearded man with a dark turban, pink robe, and sword. These central figures are surrounded by numerous monkeys and bears of varying sizes and colors, including light brown, dark brown, black, and white. Many are seated in rows, particularly in the foreground and upper left, some on white circular mats. In the upper right, a large, light brown fort with battlements is visible on a steep, green hill. Other smaller hills rise in the background under a light blue sky. The ground is a bright green with subtle darker green lines suggesting foliage or terrain.
