Detailed Description
A vertical rectangular painting depicts a dense scene with many figures. A large, bald figure with light skin sits prominently in the lower-middle, wearing a light green undergarment and a flowing red robe. This central figure's hands are clasped in front, and a large, pale halo surrounds its head. It is seated on a stylized red and white cloud or cushion. Numerous smaller figures, mostly seated, are scattered across the entire composition, surrounding the central figure. Many of these smaller figures also wear red robes, and some have halos. They are depicted on stylized cloud formations or landscape elements in shades of light green and white. In the upper section, several figures are arranged, including one at the very top center within a green halo. To the right of the central figure, one smaller figure holds a scroll. In the lower section, the background becomes more detailed with stylized clouds, rock formations, and smaller, more dynamic figures, some with red flame-like elements or dark, swirling clouds. The dominant colors are various shades of red for the robes, light green for the background and some garments, and white for clouds and halos, with accents of darker greens and grays.
