Pancham Raga is a 1670 unspecified by Unknown, a Baroque work, depicting Malwa, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows three figures in bright colors against a red background. A man in a gold-and-blue robe sits on a throne, holding a long staff. To his left, a woman in a blue dress stands with her hand on her chest. On his right, another woman in a striped dress holds a fan and looks toward him. Behind them is a small building with a red roof and gold doors, and a tree with red flowers grows in the corner. The text at the top is in a script that looks like it’s telling a story, but it’s hard to read. The colors are bold—reds, blues, and golds—making everything stand out. Next, look up malwa to see how this scene connects to its setting.
