Visual Summary

Brief Description

A blue-skinned figure sits centrally, adorned with gold, surrounded by smaller figures and ornate patterns

Detailed Description

A vertical rectangular painting depicts a large, dark blue-skinned figure seated centrally, facing forward. The figure wears an elaborate gold crown, multiple gold necklaces, armbands, and bracelets. Its hands rest palms up, one atop the other, in its lap. Behind the figure's head is a gold halo, and a larger, flame-like red and gold aura frames its body. The figure is seated on a multi-tiered throne or lotus base, decorated with intricate red, gold, and black patterns. To the left and right of the central figure, at shoulder height, stand two smaller, light-skinned figures on lotus pedestals, also adorned. Below these, near the central figure's knees, are two small, active figures, one appearing as a white lion-like creature on the left. The background immediately surrounding the central figure is dark blue or black, subtly patterned with gold. The entire composition is bordered by multiple rows of small, circular medallions, each containing a miniature, mostly gold-colored, seated figure against a red background. The dominant colors are dark blue, rich red, and gold, with black accents.
