Detailed Description
The painting is a vertical rectangle with a thick reddish-brown border. The upper portion features a dark blue sky above a white, multi-tiered building with a small, gridded window and two golden finials on its roof. Above the building and extending to the right, white text in a script is written on a light blue background, which reads: "रागनिहेसवेसीरिः ॥२४॥दोहा॥मारगचाहैचोचितःछिनछिन नमोरेग तः॥ ॐ एकनिमकमपीयरस बिनमानहुजुगबराज". The main scene unfolds against a muted green background. On the left, inside an open-fronted structure with a dark blue interior and a yellow frame, a dark-skinned man with a mustache and a red and yellow turban sits on a white cushion. He wears a light-colored tunic, white pants, and jewelry. To his left, a fair-skinned woman in a red and yellow patterned skirt and a red top sits on a yellow cushion. To the man's right, a fair-skinned woman stands, facing right, wearing a long yellow skirt with red patterns and a red top. She holds a white fan-like object. To the right of this group, two dark-skinned men sit on a red platform against the green background. Both wear yellow garments wrapped around their lower bodies and jewelry. The man on the left has a beard and a topknot, while the man on the right wears a red and yellow turban. Both men have their hands raised, palms facing forward, and appear to be holding strings of beads. Below the figures, a horizontal band of dark blue contains white and yellow lotus flowers with green leaves and brown seed pods.
