Vessantara Jataka, Chapter 11: Jujaka Beset by Villagers

Thai (Artist)

As Jujaka is on his way back to his village with Vessantara's children, he loses his way and finds himself in Vessantara's father's kingdom. The villagers recognize the children and assume that Jujaka has stolen them from Vessantara. They then proceeded to beat Jujaka.
