Lord Vishnu Appears in the Cremation Ground

This Kangra painting depicts Raja Harishchandra and Queen Taramati standing with hands folded in front of Lord Vishnu while he is depicted in yellow coloured garments, four-armed holding a conch, discus, gada, lotus and a crown adorns his head. In the background the cityscape is depicted as a row of houses with flags on them, thus one can see Vishnu seated on Garuda and appearing from the skies.
