Detailed Description
The artwork depicts an outdoor scene on a rectangular piece of aged paper, with black text in an unfamiliar script across the top and bottom borders. The central painted area is divided horizontally, with a red lower section and a blue upper section. In the lower section, a man and a woman are seated on a green and white patterned rug, facing each other. The man, on the left, wears a yellow tunic, an orange turban, and has a mustache. He holds a small object in his right hand and gestures with his left. The woman, on the right, wears a light pink top and skirt, with a red sash. She gestures with her right hand towards the man. To their right, a third man stands, facing the seated couple. He wears a light pink tunic and a yellow turban, and gestures with his right hand. The red lower section is filled with small, stylized red plants with white and yellow dots. Several large trees with green leaves and white or yellow blossoms or fruits are distributed across the scene, with their trunks extending into the red lower section and their canopies against the blue upper section. In the upper right corner, two light brown birds with red heads stand on the blue background. The text at the top reads: "श्रीवालगागाबसिगावाडीनट, बिजातागुइरइला दिगा तदनिमालमायाचयाचन्द्रावलोप". The text at the bottom reads: "॥ इनारउचउचै जासीहातो योनदाशा बेगचलिण करे। कुंगआइजेजेदूरा ॥".
