Enthronement of a Mongol ruler.
Left part of a double-page. Original size: 38.8 cm x 29.2 cm. p. 11. Note: the source (Dschingis Khan und seine Erben) says this part of the illustration is 35.6 cm x 28.7 cm. This is, however, not really consistent with the proportions of the two parts of the illustration.
