This is a springtime Raag to be recited in the morning hours.
This Raag is associated with the yogis….
Sidh Gosht is composed in this Raag by Guru Nanak.

Guru Nanak Dev ji says

Ang 840 He alone is a yogi who realizes the word of the guru’s shabad
Ang 878 He alone is a Sidha (a seeker) who meditates on the one perfect Lord.

So this is a scene of a sunrise in the mountains with the snow clad peaks in the distance.
In the foreground the Yogis have gathered together as if to receive the Gur Gyan.
There is no physical appearance of Guru Nanak in the painting.
The rays of the rising sun are the “Gur Gyan” that is Guru Nanak.
Metaphorically the Sun represents Guru Nanak.
