介绍（中）	瓦尔米基的《罗摩衍那》中描述了这一场景："然后[安加达]巴厘岛强大的儿子，将[拉瓦纳的]宫殿爬上屋顶......他的边界的冲击使它崩溃了。伟大的猴子战士安加达出现了四次：跳过城墙并抛弃恶魔，偷走拉瓦纳的王冠，在空中飞行返回罗摩的营地，并参加兰卡合法统治者维比沙纳的加冕典礼。王冠的恢复在罗摩衍那文本中没有出现，似乎是艺术家发明的，赋予罗摩视觉权威，在这里可以看到他履行恢复世界美德统治的神圣使命。这个罗摩衍那系列从未完成。在这本对开页中，颜色已被屏蔽，但缺乏细节;该系列的其他作品集仅作为墨笔画存在。
介绍（英）	This scene is described in Valmiki's Ramayana: "Then [Angada] the powerful son of Bali, scaled [Ravana's] palace up to its roof . . . the impact of his bounds caused it to crumble." The great monkey warrior Angada is shown four times: leaping over the ramparts and casting down demons, stealing Ravana's crown, flying though the air to return to Rama's camp, and attending the crowning of Vibhishana, the rightful ruler of Lanka. The recovery of the crown does not feature in the Ramayana text and appears to have been invented by the artist to give visual authority to Rama, seen here fulfilling his divine mission to restore virtuous rule to the world. This Ramayana series was never finished. In this folio the color had been blocked in but details are lacking; other folios from the series exist only as ink-brush drawings.
