Visual Summary

Brief Description

A seated figure in a patterned robe, with a topknot, quiver, and sword

Detailed Description

The artwork depicts a single figure seated on a light brown, aged paper. The figure is positioned slightly to the left of the center, facing left with their head gently bowed. They have light skin and black hair styled into a prominent topknot at the crown of their head, with the forehead appearing shaved. The figure wears a long-sleeved robe, primarily green-grey, adorned with a repeating pattern of interconnected circles and geometric shapes. A hint of a red garment is visible at the neck and beneath the sleeves. A dark belt cinches the waist, from which a sword with a dark hilt protrudes on the left side. A quiver filled with arrows is visible on the figure's back, with the fletchings of several arrows extending upwards. The figure's legs are folded beneath them, covered by the patterned robe. The background is a plain, light brown, showing signs of age with visible creases, folds, and some darker spots. In the lower right corner, there is a vertical column of black text, beneath which a square red seal is stamped.
