(5) The picture, measuring 4′ 2″, represents Girnār. In a beautifully decorated temple, the image of Neminātha with his symbol of the conchshell is seen. He is attended by a host of gods, the chaurī-bearers, etc. Outside the sanctum stand two men and two women with folded hands. Then comes the open maṇḍapa followed by a scene representing the hill with the pilgrims trekking (Fig. 181). In the panel below, one may see the congregation engaged in worshipping or resting. Below this scene are shown a priest playing on the cymbals, a woman dancing, and a man playing on the pipe (Fig. 182).
