Visual Summary

Brief Description

A pencil sketch shows two figures on a large lotus blossom, surrounded by trees and plants

Detailed Description

A monochrome pencil sketch on light brown paper depicts two figures standing on a large lotus blossom, surrounded by natural elements. The central composition features a taller figure on the left and a slightly shorter figure on the right, both facing each other. The figure on the left wears an elaborate headdress and a long, flowing garment, with their right arm extended towards the other figure. The figure on the right has hair pulled back and a halo-like circle behind their head, wearing a long skirt or dress. Their left arm is raised, reaching towards a branch of a tree, while their right arm is bent near their chest. Both figures stand barefoot on a large, multi-layered lotus blossom, drawn with distinct petals forming an oval base. Behind and around the figures, various plants and trees are sketched, including a prominent tree with numerous leaves directly above and between them. Additional foliage, possibly smaller plants or bushes, fills the foreground and background. The drawing is rendered entirely in line work and light shading, without color.
