A bald figure in red and patterned robes sits cross-legged before a three-panel screen
Detailed Description
A bald individual with light skin is seated cross-legged, facing forward with eyes closed or downcast and a neutral expression. Their hands are clasped together in front of the abdomen, palms up. The figure wears a red inner robe covering the chest and arms, and an outer robe draped over the left shoulder and lap. This outer robe features broad bands of dark green, blue, and black with subtle patterns. The figure sits on a low, dark brown platform with two rectangular panels on the front, each containing a faint, light-colored animal motif. Behind the figure is a three-panel screen with dark brown panels and ornate, dark green-blue borders. A string of dark beads hangs from the upper right side of this screen. The background behind the screen is a plain, muted olive-brown color. The central image is enclosed by a narrow, light gold border, which is then surrounded by a wider, dark gold border patterned with repeating floral motifs.
