Visual Summary

Brief Description

A standing figure with an elaborate headdress and halo on clouds against a dark background

Detailed Description

This vertical scroll painting features a standing figure centrally positioned against a dark background. The figure stands on a cluster of white and gold-outlined clouds that rise from the bottom of the composition. The figure wears an elaborate gold headdress and long, flowing robes primarily in gold and dark green, with intricate patterns. A staff topped with a lotus bud is held in the figure's right hand. Behind the figure's head is a circular halo, from which thin gold lines radiate outwards across the dark blue-black background, forming a large, fan-like shape. The figure's face is light-skinned with downcast eyes and a neutral expression. The entire painting is framed by a wide, tan-orange border adorned with repeating gold floral and circular patterns. The top and bottom edges of the central dark panel also have a narrow, patterned gold border.
