About this work

This painting shows a bearded man in bright orange robes sitting on a throne. He holds a book in one hand and a staff in the other, with a small figure kneeling at his feet. Around him are two smaller figures, one on each side, standing on clouds. The background has gold patterns and a golden halo behind the man’s head. The edges of the painting have green leaf designs and small flowers. The man’s throne looks like a mix of church and castle, with gold details and a cross on the book. The painting feels old, with some fading and wear. Look up cross-hatching to see how artists create texture with lines.
