Seated on a throne of lotus flower petals, it is depicted with blue body, crowned head and bejeweled body, while with his left hand he holds a scepter (vajra) vertically and with his right he touches the ground. Two elephants support the throne with a double lotus seat. It is surrounded by bodhisattvas, siddhams bidders. Surrounded by a rainbow, it probably depicts the family who commissioned the painting as a sign of Buddhist devotion. Husband, son (with umbrella) and wife are placed on lotus flowers and wear the typical Nepalese dress.
