A vertically oriented gum tempera painting depicts a man with light skin tone sitting cross-legged on a blue and gold throne. He gazes toward a woman in a yellow and blue dress on our left. To our right, a second woman stands holding a white whisk over his head. Above, a stone building stands under a black sky. Yellow text and a floral bottom border frame the red-walled scene.
