This painting shows five figures in bright, flat colors against a red border. The central figure sits on a throne, holding a round object with three small cups or bowls on it. Two figures on each side kneel, wearing robes in red and blue with gold trim. Behind them, two smaller figures stand in a distant cityscape with towers and a dome. The central figure’s face and hands are painted with a golden glow, while the others have halos. The background city looks like a stylized map, with buildings and a road stretching into the distance. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists create shading with lines.
