The present lot depicts Rama, Laxman and Sita. Rama being the principal figure, is larger than Sita and Laxman. He bears a Vaishnavite marking on his forehead, inlaid in silver and copper, and stands on a lotus base. Both Rama and Laxman stand in a pose indicative of holding their bows and arrows. Though their ornamentation is restrained, the detailing of their clothes, hair and jewellery is exquisite.
