A Half Goat Half Man sits on a composite Elephant comprised of fishes, dogs rats bold and bright colors completes its body . There are pictures of tiger and fishes on the trunk with a demon leading the elehant with fishes in a pot . Fanciful depictions of composite animals particularly elephants, camels and horses likely had originally come to India via Persian and Indo-Islamic sources - however here our mahout is a mughal servant .The stylistic provenance of this work is elusive, with elements of Deccan, Rajasthan and Pahari elements intermixing, like the composite subject itself.
