This drawing shows two women in fancy clothes sitting in a small, golden chariot. One holds a fan, and the other waves her hand. Around them, bright flowers and lush plants fill the scene, with a bird flying nearby. In the background, there’s a distant temple and palm trees, all painted in soft, bright colors. The blank space at the top might have been meant for more designs—this looks like a pattern for embroidery on a garment. The artist focused on delicate details, like the ruffles and the tiny flowers. Next, look up embroidery to see how these kinds of designs were used in real clothing.
