Summary

[edit]
Description
English: "This painting captures a crowded scene – a procession passing a palatial facade. At the bottom-right of this section, a prince-figure stands beneath his royal umbrella holding an elephant goad. Behind him is an attendant, bearing a chauri (Yak-Tail fly whisk). Both were probably mounted on an elephant, for in front of them is a canopy along with a flying bird and part of a billowing cloth standard. Beyond a painted screen, eight swaggering, bright-eyed soldiers march dizzily along, waving their straight-bladed swords, threatening flights of insects with their fly-whisks in good humour.
