Brief Description
Two panels, each with a large leaf shape, one depicting a group of figures in a landscape
Detailed Description
The artwork consists of two vertical panels, each framed by a textured gold border. The central area of each panel is a solid, deep blue. Within this blue field, a large, light brown, heart-shaped leaf with a pointed tip at the top is depicted. The left panel features a plain, unadorned light brown leaf shape with a slightly mottled texture. The right panel's leaf shape contains a detailed painted scene. The background of this scene is a dense arrangement of slender, light brown tree trunks with green foliage at the top, forming a dense forest. In the foreground, a group of ten figures with visible facial hair and wrinkles are gathered. In the center, a large, bald figure with a prominent belly is seated on the ground, wearing a loose red robe and an upward-curving mouth. To their left, a standing figure in a light blue robe holds a staff, while another figure in a light purple robe sits nearby. To the right of the central figure, a group of five figures in various shades of brown, purple, and green robes are positioned, some standing and some seated, with one holding a staff. Above them, towards the upper right of the leaf, another figure in a white robe is positioned with their head angled downwards. On the ground around the central figure, a small bowl, a staff, and other indistinct objects are visible. The figures have distinct facial features.
