Detailed Description
A black and white image depicts a woman standing outdoors, positioned slightly to the right of the center. She faces left, her head tilted upwards and to the left, with her gaze directed towards the upper left portion of the frame. Her right arm is raised, holding a thin, rope-like object or chain that extends upwards into the dark foliage of a tree. Her left arm is bent at the elbow, with her hand near her waist. She wears a long, flowing skirt, a fitted top, and a veil draped over her head and shoulder. Visible jewelry includes earrings, a necklace, and bracelets on her wrists. To the woman's left is a white building with a flat roof and an open, dark doorway revealing a patterned floor inside. To her right, a large, dark tree with dense, textured foliage extends from the bottom to the top of the frame. The background behind the woman and the tree is dark, with lighter, wavy lines suggesting clouds or a stormy sky. The ground in the foreground is light-colored and plain. At the top of the image, a block of text in Devanagari script is visible: "॥सूय ममाल जी ही डोल की रानी॥जो वनशरि य नभू दिरही है॥अंबर नीन मे हार सिंगारनि कुंकु सांभ भी नपनी तम नोहरही है॥चंचलाको चमकी सविभी भी नर्गई चोक्तिही है॥ यामप माषदी राग हिडोलकी रागनी चित केचोपल ही है॥"
