The present watercolor of a traditionally dressed courting couple exemplifies the artist’s eye for detail, from the intricate drapery and jewels of the figures to the carpet, upholstery and painted wall of the well-appointed room they sit in. Wearing a traditional Maharashtrian nauvari sari, the woman here is likely a singer, her tanpura placed on the floor beside her. The man seated by her, dressed in a Northern Indian outfit, complete with turban and leather ‘mojri’ slippers, is perhaps one of her royal patrons who has been charmed by her performance.
