Detailed Description
Four figures are depicted in a flat style within an interior or semi-enclosed setting. The background is dark green, with a light brown floor patterned with small red and white floral motifs. In the center, a man with a dark mustache and light complexion sits on a large, decorated cushion. He wears a white tunic, a striped lower garment in beige and brown, and a red and gold turban. He has a long white beaded necklace and a black earring. His hands are held together in front of him. The cushion is red with white and blue floral patterns. To the man's left, a woman stands, holding a white fan with a dark handle. She wears a long red dress with white patterns, a dark top, and multiple necklaces and bracelets. To the man's right, two women are seated on the patterned floor. The woman closer to the man wears a light blue lower garment, a red top, and a dark shawl. She holds a dark, stringed instrument. The woman further right wears a red lower garment with white patterns, a dark top, and a dark shawl. Both seated women have dark hair, necklaces, and bracelets. Above the figures is a white architectural structure with green patterned tiles. Above this structure, a yellow band displays dark script reading "पल के.सतान". Below the white structure, another line of dark script reads "राममाल को सीका।।।". The top right corner has a large, irregular tear, revealing the light brown paper beneath.
