Boat with Three People and Objects
Summary
Even though the head of the main figure is missing, it can be deduced from this motif that this is Guanyin and his/her servants Shancai and Longnu. They are sitting in a boat, a symbol of rescue; Guanyin saves people at risk of drowning in a sea of misfortune.
