Visual Summary

Brief Description

A large, dark, multi-eyed figure with a skull crown sits in flames, surrounded by many figures

Detailed Description

A large, dark-complexioned figure is centrally positioned, surrounded by a vibrant red and orange flaming aura. The central figure has a wide, open mouth revealing fangs and a red tongue, with three prominent eyes on its face. It wears an elaborate gold crown adorned with skulls and intricate gold jewelry, including a long garland of white skull-like beads. Its hands hold a horizontal staff or weapon across its chest. The figure is seated on a multi-layered lotus throne with green, blue, and red petals. Around the central figure, within the fiery aura, are numerous smaller figures. To the left and right, several dark-complexioned figures with intense expressions appear, some with multiple limbs or animal heads. Interspersed are figures with calm expressions and various animals, including deer. The upper border features multiple rows of smaller, seated figures, predominantly individuals in orange and red robes with calm expressions, alongside some darker, intense-looking figures. The lower section of the artwork shows a landscape base with a procession of smaller, active figures, including dancing individuals, figures holding weapons, and figures presenting objects, against a backdrop of green and brown earth tones. The dominant colors are deep blues, reds, oranges, and gold accents.
