Portraiture was one aspect of the general humanistic interest and the insatiable curiosity of the early Mughals which resulted in painting that presents both the human and physical worlds.

The artist here displays a pure, confident technique, restraint with a marked classicism. Standing erect, the ladies’ features are attractive and the limbs youthful and lithe. The precision of the pose and the manner in which the arms are raised, speak of sensuality and grace. The colours of the striped Ghagra (skirt) do clash with the bangles and other jewellery but the plain diaphanous odhini (stole) provides a chromatic relief. The smooth waist is amply revealed. In her neck she wears a choker, necklaces and finally strings of pearls falling till her waist. Bracelets, bangles and armlets adorn her arms. Large earrings called 'karnaphool' hang on her delicate ear lobes. Finally the head ornament, which she is adjusting, falls on her forehead. Jewellery is commonly expressed as an erotic enhancer in Indian art.

Wide open eyes and delicate lips are part of the beauty bestowed by nature, enhanced by man-made jewellery and attire, again enhanced by acquired grace and charm. Treatment of clothes and jewellery displays opulence and regality.
