Vairocana Buddha, gold in color, his right hand in bhūmisparśa mudrā, in a red robe, sits on a square throne. On his left is a monk corresponding to Kassapa, and opposite is one corresponding to Ananda. In front of the throne is a frontal figure whose flesh is golden in color, in a white dress with ribbons on the sleeves, kneeling on a gold mat. His arms, bare to the elbow, hold above his head a huge, flattish dish containing a white substance on which is drawn a spiral of red. |
The Buddha, larger than the preceding one, is seated on a lion throne, his hands in a form of dharmacakra mudrā, in elaborate red and gold robes. A complicated halo surrounds him, surmounted by a piece of white coral, the whole encircled by gold flames. Above hang a canopy and curtains, while in the background stretches a river landscape. On the shore to the right are an ascetic and a worshipper. On the left shore, near a willow tree, is a man milking a cow, whose calf is nearby. |
The Buddha's body is gold in color and he is dressed in red. He is seated on a lotus throne, his hands in a form of dharmacakra mudrā. Above is suspended a canopy, and curtains are drawn to each side. Flowers fall through the air. To the right is an old monk corresponding to Kassapa, and to the left a young one corresponding to Ananda. In front of them is a frontally posed woman dressed in white with a red necklace, her hands held together within her long sleeves, standing on a gold mat. |
