专家说明

This scene depicts the marriage between Devaki and Vasudeva, who is dressed in white with an elaborate headdress. The couple, surrounded by attendant figures and musicians, is brought before a fire over which the brahmin priest sprinkles ghee as part of the ceremony's rituals. Compare the palette and the rendering of the figures and architecture with an earlier example, also from the Bhagavata Purana series, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art (2002.176).
