Visual Summary

Brief Description

A multi-armed figure riding a tiger, a buffalo-headed figure, smaller figures, and a mountain

Detailed Description

A vertical ink drawing with sparse red and green washes shows a dynamic scene. In the center, a multi-armed figure with a crown and multiple weapons rides a tiger. The figure holds a bow and arrow, a sword, a trident, a shield, a mace, a discus, a conch shell, and a bell in its many hands. The figure stabs a large, buffalo-headed figure with a trident; red liquid sprays from the buffalo-headed figure's neck. The buffalo-headed figure has a human-like body and appears to be collapsing. Below the central figures, several smaller human-like figures and animal-like creatures (possibly lions or dogs) are present, some with red marks that appear to be wounds. One small human-like figure aims a bow and arrow, while another holds a weapon. In the upper left, two figures are seated on cloud-like forms; one figure is on a bird, and the other is on a swan. Red dots appear to fall downwards from them. To the right, a rocky, mountainous landscape rises, topped by a structure featuring a discus and a conch shell. The entire scene is outlined in black ink. Red washes are present on areas that appear to be blood, clothing, and other details. Green washes are present at the bottom, appearing to represent ground or water.
