Military Procession with Humans, Demons, and Animal-Headed Soldiers

The drawing features a large military procession of humans, demons, and animal-headed figures. They are mounted on either armored or unarmored horses, elephants, a camel, or on foot. On the left is a ruler, his status denoted by the large fan held above his head, as well as the black plume on his horse’s shaffron (horse head defense). The shaffron’s shape is intended to mimic an elephant’s head, in order to threaten and scare opponents. Rajput Style, Kota School.
