Description de l’image
The image features elaborate floats and scenes. The upper half shows two carriages drawn by horse-like creatures. One float has a figure radiating light, while the other includes various figures, fountains, and plant decorations. The lower portion depicts figures in rugged terrain engaged in a laborious task, along with intricately arranged figures on a wave-like platform. The drawing emphasizes texture and ornamentation with detailed line work and shading.
