About this work

The painting depicts a serene scene with a mountain of gold in the background, surrounded by lush greenery and trees. In the foreground, several animals are visible, including a tiger, a bear, and deer. A group of people, dressed in yellow robes, are gathered at the top of the mountain. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of harmony and balance in the painting. The contrast between the warm tones of the mountain and the cool tones of the trees and sky adds depth and visual interest. This painting is part of the collection at the Detroit Institute of Arts.
