A large gathering of people around a raised wooden platform, with figures both within and surrounding it
Detailed Description
This horizontal artwork depicts a large assembly of people gathered around a raised wooden platform. The background is a plain, light tan, with a decorative black and gold patterned border along the top and bottom edges. The central feature is an open-sided wooden platform with a sloped, gabled roof supported by visible rafters. Steps lead up to the platform. Inside this structure, a dense crowd of figures, many with bald heads, are seated or standing. They are mostly dressed in dark grey or brown robes and appear to be looking towards a central point within the platform. In the very center of the platform, a smaller figure in a patterned yellow garment is visible among the seated individuals. Around the base of the platform and extending into the foreground and sides, numerous other figures are depicted. On the far left, two figures in white robes and large, wide-brimmed hats walk away from the central scene. Below them, several individuals in robes of green, brown, and red are walking or standing. To the right of the platform, more figures in various robes and hats are present, some observing the platform, others in motion. Some wear tall, dark hats, while others have wide, flat hats. In the immediate foreground, the tops of two dark, possibly tent-like structures are partially visible. The overall color palette consists of muted earth tones, including light tan, various browns, greys, and whites, accented by occasional reds, greens, and yellows in the clothing. The composition is crowded, depicting a busy public gathering.
