A seated, bearded man in red robes with a green halo, resting on a patterned cushion
Detailed Description
The image features a seated, bearded man against a uniform light brown background. The man is positioned in the lower center of the composition. He has dark skin, a full dark beard and mustache, and short dark hair. A circular, light green halo surrounds his head. He wears a red robe draped over his left shoulder, leaving his right shoulder and chest bare. A light green sash is visible around his waist. His hands are not clearly visible, but his posture suggests he is seated cross-legged. He sits on a large, green, leaf-shaped cushion, which is covered by a red cloth with a subtle patterned design. Below this cushion, to the right, is a smaller, similarly shaped green cushion, on which a pair of light brown sandals rests. The central image is bordered by a decorative frame featuring a repeating pattern of dark blue and red motifs. On the right side, vertically aligned, are three Chinese characters in dark ink: "大阿羅漢像". On the left side, a longer vertical inscription in dark ink is present, followed by two square red seals stacked vertically.
