Detailed Description
A vertical scroll painting depicts a standing figure with dark skin and prominent white eyes, centered against a dark, muted background. The figure faces forward, with its body slightly angled to the right. Its dark, curly hair is visible, possibly adorned with a headdress. The hands are clasped together in front of the chest. The figure wears layered garments, including an inner red garment and an outer dark robe with flowing sleeves and sashes. Faint lines suggest intricate details or embroidery on the clothing. The figure stands barefoot on a rectangular, dark-colored base. The central image is framed by a decorative border featuring a repeating pattern of gold, stylized cloud or floral shapes on a darker brown background, visible along all four edges of the scroll.
