The miniatures represent the goddess Ambikā (Fig. 46), Tīrthaṃkara Neminātha, a layman or donor seated with folded hands, (Fig. 47) and a seated Śrāvikā, also in the same attitude¹¹. The drawing is careful and there is an attempt at modelling in colours. Then follow in chronological order two miniatures of very inferior workmanship in the palm-leaf manuscript of the Kathā-ratnasāgara in the Pāṭannā Saṅghavinā Pāḍānā Bhaṇḍār, dated 1256 A.D.¹². They illustrate Pārśvanātha and Jain monks and nuns. - [Previous: c6.195](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.chandra-1949.c6.195) - [Next: c6.197](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.chandra-1949.c6.197) - [Up: c6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.chandra-1949.c6) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.chandra-1949.c6.196](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.art.chandra-1949.c6.196) · Pramāṇa
