Alice Heeramaneck, Masterpieces of Indian Painting, Verona, 1984 pl. 48, p. 58

A blue-skinned lord wearing a flaring white-muslin jama and a double-finial peacock feathered pagri (Mughal-style cap) exchanges flower garlands with the sakhi (confidante) of his eager but shy young mistress.  The younger maiden holding her veil demurely as her older confidante holds her wisely back at arm's length.  A bower festooned with garlands behind them. Against a passionate vermilion red backdrop with an ultramarine blue sky above.  Pairs of egrets, birds, deer and peacocks gather on a geometrically inlaid terrace floor.  The forest beyond bursting with fertile plantain trees and shrubs.
