In the upper part of the fresco, above the blocks of conventional hills, a *Gandharva* and a pair of other celestial beings may be seen flying in clouds. They are bringing flowers on trays made of leaves for presentation to the Bodhisattva. The figure of the *Gandharva* is striking on account of its fine modelling and decorative detail.
