Visual Summary

Brief Description

A multi-headed, multi-armed red figure stands on two prostrate figures, with many smaller figures

Detailed Description

The image is a vertical, rectangular painting with a central, large, red-skinned figure. This central figure has five visible heads and at least ten arms, wearing a golden crown and jewelry. It stands on a prostrate, light-skinned figure, who in turn lies on a dark-skinned figure. This central group is framed by an elaborate golden archway with intricate patterns, set against a red background. Above the central figure, within the arch, is a smaller, similar red figure. To the left and right of the central arch, there are vertical columns of eight circular or oval medallions on each side, totaling sixteen. Each medallion contains a seated figure, mostly red-skinned, some light-skinned, in various postures, often holding objects. Below the central scene, a multi-tiered platform displays ten more medallions, five on an upper tier and five on a lower tier, each with a seated figure varying in skin color and posture. The entire composition is bordered by a light blue band at the top and sides, and a dark green band at the bottom. Reds, blues, greens, yellows, and gold are prominent colors throughout the composition.
