The drawing & modeling of this figure in profile, is excellent, embodying an extra-ordinary rich sensuous appeal. Obviously, it is an idealization, for no woman could have such eyes. It represents the Rajput ideal of feminine beauty at its best. Her face is delicate and refined like that of a courtesan. Her face is framed in cleverly arranged curls of ebony hair which fall back. She wears a short, green choli and a pink skirt, and has draped herself in a transparent wrap which greatly enhances her charm. The delicate arms end in tapering fingers, the tips of which are dyed in henna. She is decked with elaborate jewellery, a head ornament with pearls & precious stones, earrings, necklaces & bangles. Between the tips of her fingers, she delicately holds the stem of a fully bloomed lotus.
To appreciate the vibrant pink & greens of the protagonist, the artist has painted the background in flat, black hues.
