Description
English: "Gouache painting on paper from a portfolio of sixty-three paintings of deities and daily life. Nairruti, the guardian of the south-west, rides on the shoulders of a large, dark male figure. The red-complexioned dikpala (guardian) is shown with four arms. In his upper right hand is a round object with a handle and in the upper left hand is a fan. His lower right hand is in abhaya and his lower left in varada mudra. He wears a dhoti, the angavastra (shawl) draped over his elbows, and he bears a delicately drawn yajnopavita (sacred thread) across his chest. The sturdy man supports Nairruti’s feet on his upturned palms. He wears short trousers, an angavastra draped over his shoulders and ornaments. The god is accompanied by two attendants on foot. The one preceding him carries a fan, similar to the one Nairruti carries in his upper left hand. The other, following him, carries a parasol. A light wash of brown and green suggest the ground on which the group stand"
