Folio 94 from a Gandavyuha-sutra (Scripture of the Supreme Array): Sudhana and the rishi Bhishmottaranirgosha (recto); text (verso)
Two long, narrow, light-brown wooden panels, side by side. The top panel has a painting in the center showing a man sitting on the ground and another figure standing beside him. The standing figure wears a white robe, the sitting figure wears orange and red. The man on the left has a halo around his head. The background of the painting includes a tree. The panels have three holes along the top, presumably for binding. The panels are covered in black text in an ancient script. The bottom panel is mostly text. The panels have rough edges. The background behind the panels is off-white.
