About this work

This painting depicts a woman sitting on a peacock feather, playing a flute. She wears a yellow sari with a red border and a red headscarf, and is surrounded by a deer, a peacock, and two women in the background. The scene is set in a garden with trees, flowers, and a cloudy sky. The woman's clothing and the peacock feather suggest an Indian or Southeast Asian setting. The painting's style and use of color are reminiscent of traditional Indian art.
