About this work

This painting shows three people on a rooftop at night. A man in a turban sits on a chair, holding something in his hands. Two women stand near him—one in a yellow sari handing him an object, the other in a blue-green dress holding a fan. The background is dark with a few faint stars, and the rooftop has a low wall with small arches. The scene looks calm, with soft colors and gentle lighting. The artist used a loose, sketchy style that focuses on everyday life rather than perfect details. If you like this, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more works like it.
