This appears to be a "Phrabot," an ancient Thai temple scroll painting.
The creation of a Phrabot had profound religious significance, tied to the concept of earning merit, a key element of Buddhism.
It could be attributed to the "Rattanakosin" school (1787–1910), executed with matte pigments on fabric or a textured panel

Rattanakosin is the exact term used in Thai historiography to refer to the historical period of the first seven Chakri monarchs, between the founding of Bangkok as the capital of Thailand in 1782 and the end of the absolute monarchy in 1932, and was therefore never the country’s official name in historical terms
