Two women on a terrace, one touching the other's forehead, beside a building and tree
Detailed Description
The painting is a vertical rectangle framed by a wide red border, with a thinner yellow line inside the red. The scene depicts two women on a terrace with architectural elements and a landscape background. The upper portion of the painting shows a light blue sky with wispy white clouds. To the right, a large, dark green tree with dense foliage rises above a pink wall. The wall has a scalloped top edge. On the left, a building features a gray wall with a light brown rectangular door. Above this, a golden overhang extends, topped by a pink structure and a white, umbrella-like canopy supported by two white pillars. In the lower half of the painting, two women stand on a light gray platform or steps. The woman on the left wears a white head covering that drapes over her shoulders, a striped skirt with horizontal bands of red, purple, and yellow, and a light brown top. She faces the woman on the right, with her right hand gently touching the forehead of the other woman. The woman on the right wears an orange short-sleeved top and a long, olive-green skirt. Her left hand holds a small, light-colored object, possibly a fan or cloth, near her waist. Both women have dark hair, visible around their faces, and wear simple jewelry. At the very top of the painting, above the main scene and within the red border, there is a line of text in a dark script. The text reads: "॥कावतर स्वामीसीपादसेवदासीनि केदवदेददोदे। तापकेतु नेटनदीदे। तेरामोतनरामनराभोलु। नितेनअकेला को आनरहादेको स कीमेतोसोकहादे। ॥१॥ छनायः ॥३॥".
