Thai mural temple paintings are hig

Thai mural temple paintings are hightly stylistic. Also a lot of symbols are used. Basically the artists render certain scenes from the life of the Buddha and the Jatakas. While the details may differ, scenes are similar in different temples.
While lots of characters may confuse the meaning of the paintings, Thai Buddhists can recognize the different scenes by looking for key elements in the compositions. For example, the scene below (Mahajanaka Jataka) depicts the ocean with fish, and closeby (not shown) a shipwreck. This will identify the scene as part of Mahajanaka Jataka.
