Two ornately dressed figures, a bearded man and a woman, sit on patterned thrones
Detailed Description
This vertical rectangular artwork features two ornately dressed figures seated on elaborate thrones against a blue background, framed by a red border. The figure on the left is a man with dark skin, a black beard, and a mustache. He wears a conical red and gold crown, a prominent white and red beaded necklace, and a patterned brown and gold lower garment. His right hand holds a long, thin, light-colored object, possibly a staff or sword, resting on his shoulder. His left hand is raised with fingers slightly curled. He sits on a throne with a patterned seat and back, featuring red, gold, and blue designs. A red and white patterned circular halo surrounds his head. The figure on the right is a woman with dark skin, wearing a similar conical red and gold crown, a green top, and a pink and gold patterned skirt. She also wears a large white and red beaded necklace. Her right hand is raised, holding a small, thin, light-colored object. Her left hand rests on her lap. She sits on a blue throne with gold and red patterns. A red and white patterned circular halo surrounds her head, mirroring the man's. Above the figures, the blue background includes decorative elements: a red and gold canopy-like structure on the left and a rectangular panel with a blue and gold grid pattern on the right. The overall palette is dominated by red, blue, gold, brown, green, and white, with bold outlines and intricate patterns.
