The horse in the top left leaps over the river. A servant holds a parasol over the aspara's head. Siddhattha sits underneath the tree in the centre cutting his hair with a blade. Before him figures kneel in prayer and hold offerings. Two figures in the bottom left corner have turned away from the shrine and have covered their eyes with their hands).
