Lion figure into which a corpse will be placed for cremation

A golden lion figure into which a corpse will be placed is under construction. After the form is finished it will be colorfully painted before being burned during the cremation ceremony. The lion's mouth is open showing sharp fangs and its unfinished torso is wrapped with a large red cloth.
