Brief Description
Fierce, red-skinned, multi-armed figure seated on a lotus throne, surrounded by a red aura
Detailed Description
A central, multi-armed, red-skinned figure is depicted against a dark background. The figure has a fierce expression with wide eyes and an open mouth, and wears elaborate gold jewelry, including necklaces, armbands, and a crown. Six arms are visible: two are held in front of the chest, two are raised, and two are resting on the lap. The figure is seated with legs folded on a large, multi-layered lotus throne with red petals and gold accents. Behind the figure's head is a lighter, intricate halo, which is encompassed by a larger, circular red aura that extends outwards. Below the lotus throne, an ornate, multi-tiered pedestal supports the entire composition. This pedestal is primarily gold with red drapery and features decorative elements, including what appear to be stylized eyes or jewels arranged around its base and on the brown ground below. The background behind the figure is a dark, almost black, color, while the lower portion of the painting, beneath the pedestal, is a lighter, textured brown. The entire artwork is bordered by a patterned gold fabric.
