Visual Summary

Brief Description

A haloed standing figure holds a staff and bowl, on a lotus, framed by patterns

Detailed Description

This vertical artwork depicts a standing figure against a dark, plain background, framed by decorative borders. The central figure, rendered in light gold and brown tones, faces forward with a neutral expression. Its head is surrounded by a faint, circular halo. The figure has an oval face with downcast eyes, a small mouth, and elongated earlobes. Dark hair is visible on the head. The figure is draped in flowing robes, primarily dark brown with intricate gold patterns forming geometric shapes and floral motifs. The robes are layered, revealing parts of the chest and arms. The figure's right hand holds a tall, slender staff adorned with an elaborate, multi-tiered finial at its top. The left hand is raised to chest height, palm upward, holding a small, dark, cup-like object. The figure's bare feet rest upon a large, stylized lotus flower, depicted in gold with visible petals. The main image panel is bordered on both vertical sides by wide strips featuring a repeating pattern of gold floral designs on a dark, possibly green or blue-black, background. Narrower, similarly patterned borders are also present at the very top and bottom edges of the artwork.
