Notes about the Central Figure
Classification: Deity
Appearance: Wrathful
Gender: Male
#5044 is most likely a copy of this painting, done by a later artist. This is because #5044 has an identical composition and design but a different color palette and slightly lesser skill of brushwork.
Because we have four other paintings in the set containing #5044, this suggests that they are all copies of an original set which included this painting, but no other examples from this original set have been found yet.
