A woman and man recline on a patterned mat, with a shell, vase, and teapot.
Detailed Description
Two figures are positioned on a patterned mat against a plain, light brown background. In the center, a dark-skinned man reclines on his left side, with a fair-skinned woman kneeling behind him. The man has a dark beard and mustache, and his dark hair is styled in two buns on top of his head. He wears a loose, light-colored robe that exposes his chest and right arm. His right hand holds a white, conch-like shell, while his left hand rests on a colorful, pleated fan. His bare legs are bent, with his right foot resting on the mat and his left leg extended. The woman, with fair skin and dark hair styled in a bun, wears a red top with long sleeves and a light-colored undershirt. Her right arm is draped over the man's shoulder, and her left hand is visible near his waist. To the right of the figures, a large, light green vase with decorative patterns sits on a red stand. It holds two long, green peacock feathers and several pieces of red coral. Next to the vase, a small, white teapot with a lid and handle rests on the mat. Further to the left, near the man's feet, a small, green pedestal bowl contains several pieces of reddish-brown food. The mat beneath the figures and objects is light green with a repeating geometric pattern and a scalloped purple border. At the top center of the image, a square red seal contains several dark, stylized characters.
