This painting depicts a Sikh couple standing in a serene outdoor setting. The woman, dressed in an orange sari with a green pattern, wears a head covering and large earrings. She holds a bow in her right hand and has a quiver of arrows on her back. The man, attired in a black turban and dark clothing, also carries a bow and quiver. He wears yellow shoes and has a red sash around his waist. The couple stands on a yellow path, surrounded by trees and a blue sky with white clouds. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of tranquility and harmony. The Victoria and Albert Museum holds this beautiful piece of art.
