This ornate depiction shows Samantabhadra, an important figure in Mahayana Buddhism, seated on a white elephant. Dressed in a bright golden robe, he is holding a lotus flower - a symbol of purity and enlightenment. The white elephant, often interpreted as a sign of wisdom and spiritual power, wears colourful jewellery and lends the motif a sublime aura. The dark background highlights the radiant colours and emphasises the deep spiritual significance of this impressive work of art.
