This illuminated manuscript leaf features a horizontal register of ten seated figures, each rendered in a vibrant palette of yellow, red, blue, and green. The figures are depicted in profile within individual colored niches, accompanied by symbolic motifs above their heads, including animals and celestial objects. Below the pictorial register is a dense block of Devanagari script in black ink with red accents, bordered by a simple red frame. The reverse of the leaf contains additional lines of Sanskrit text. The piece is presented in a modern chrome-finish frame with a neutral mat.
