To the left are Rama and his brothers on chariots accompanied by Dasaratha, who rides a white horse, and numerous retainers. In the centre they are shown standing on the ground after dismounting. Opposite them is the gigantic form of Parasurama holding his axe and behind him are the gods, amongst whom Brahman is easily recognizable.

The artist has actually combined three scenes in one picture, namely the marriage procession, the encounter between Rama and Parasurama, and finally Parasurama's departure.' . 1706 ( 1649).
