About this work

In front of a niche with an image of a god stand two men on either side bringing offerings; the man on the left is dressed in bright yellow and orange clothing, the man on the right in a simple white monk's robe; below and around the niche are dark blue fields speckled with gold on which stenciled cows in gold with red decorations are applied; above the roof of the temple on both sides of a gold-colored weather vane a gray-blue and white cloud mass is painted against a deep dark blue sky. The image is framed by a narrow border in light green with dark frame lines; around this a gray strip is laid in brush and opaque paint over a broader border of red opaque paint on which gold circles are applied and white frame lines; the red border appears only on the sides and bottom of the sheet.
