Devagiri Ragini is a 1800 paint by Unknown, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a scene with three women. The woman on the left is holding a long pipe and spraying water at the woman in the middle. The woman in the middle is holding a flower and looking up at the water. The woman on the right is holding a bowl and looking at the woman in the middle. The background is decorated with intricate patterns and colors. The painting is full of details, from the women's clothing to the patterns on the walls. The artist used a range of colors to create a sense of depth and texture. The painting is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
The painting is an opaque watercolor on paper, created around 1800 as an illustration for the musical mode Devagiri Ragini. It depicts a woman standing in the central arch of a pavilion, holding two blossoms—one near her nose and the other extended outward—while two maids attend her, one holding a scarf-fan and the other a golden vessel. Below, a bed with three cushions is visible, and a peacock moves along the edge of the brick terrace.
