Devachandra

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a long, narrow, yellowed piece of paper with black writing on it. The paper appears to be old and torn in several places. The writing on the paper is in a language that resembles Sanskrit. The paper is divided into sections, with the right section featuring a colorful illustration of a person sitting cross-legged. The person in the illustration has white hair and a long white beard, and is dressed in orange and yellow attire. The person is surrounded by a red border. The background of the image behind the paper is gray.
