Enthroned Rama and Sita receive homage from their monkey and bear allies, c. 1765. Creator: Unknown.

Enthroned Rama and Sita receive homage from their monkey and bear allies, c. 1765. This scene is set at the end of the Hindu epic  Ramayana,  after Rama has taken his place as king after 13 years of exile in the forest. Rama?s blue skin identifies him as the incarnation of the god Vishnu, who came to earth to defeat a powerful demon. During Rama?s time of exile, the demon abducted Sita, Rama?s wife. In a battle of seemingly impossible odds, the exiled Rama gathered an army of monkeys and bears, and together they defeated the demon and rescued Sita. The chiefs of the monkey and bear armies pay their respects to the reunited royal couple.
