Brief Description

A large figure on a golden throne, a smaller figure, with two panels of black script

Detailed Description

This horizontal artwork depicts a central scene flanked by two panels of text. The central image features a large, light-skinned figure seated on an ornate, golden throne with a blue patterned cushion. The figure has dark hair, a calm expression, and wears a red lower garment and various pieces of jewelry, including necklaces and armbands. Their hands are held in a specific gesture, palms facing each other with fingers slightly curled. To the right of the main figure, a smaller, yellow-skinned figure sits on the ground, looking up. This figure wears a patterned yellow garment and jewelry. Behind the main figure is a red archway with intricate golden patterns, topped by green foliage. To the right of the main figure, a golden, multi-tiered, conical structure stands. The central image is framed by a red border with a golden inner line. On both the left and right sides of the central image are vertical panels of dense black script on a light, aged background. Each text panel is bordered by a thin red line and a wider golden line with small red dots. The entire artwork is enclosed within a red and golden border. The overall color palette includes reds, blues, yellows, greens, and the natural tone of the paper.
