The phrase "place of fabulous wealth or opportunity" is a common translation of the term "eldorado." A statue of Gautam Buddha is seen here ambling over what appears to be a prosperous and happy countryside. This work is fanciful in character with traces of semi-abstraction. Dark and grey shades are prominent in the colour scheme, but the warm colour of the Buddha symbol in the composition's middle gives it a particularly calming appearance.
