| Description |

| Extended description |
This work has no aun-aun motifs, and a highly decorated central tree. The birds in the left-hand scene have small tails. All these are in accordance with a small number of works painted in the 1920s and 1930s by leading artists of Kamasan. Some were sold via Pita Maha, indicating these may not have been intended for a temple, but rather have been made for sale.
