About this work

In front of a niche with an image of a god stand two men on either side bringing offerings; in front of the left figure sits an old man crouching and in front of the right figure a young woman; in front of the niche with the image stands a miniature temple of bamboo sticks and on a cushion in the temple stands a small bust of the same god image. The image is framed by a narrow border in light yellow with a dark frame line; around this a gray strip is laid in brush and opaque paint over a broader border of red opaque paint on which a pattern of elliptical strokes is applied in gray on the top and bottom edges; the image partially extends over the borders and forms a whole with them.
