    Definitely like the rendition! And @robinjojo is right, too much orange in that second picture. It hurts your eyes a bit. If you go to Thanjavur, you can actually see Raja Raja Chola's true painting at the Big Temple. He is on the right, behind his guru!

    But a more modern rendition is probably this :hilarious:
