Description
Two lovers are seated on a sofa on a terrace gazing into each others eyes. A lady attendant behind the couple holds a lit torch signifying the flame of desire, while two lady musicians seated on the left sing and play a drum. The shimmering gold jama and turban of the nayaka and the ghagra of the nayika is perhaps a deliberate indication of the burning desire felt by the couple in their love for each other. The hero holds up a mirror in front of the heroine, perhaps because lovers can never get enough of gazing at each other! The terraced setting and pavilion in the background is in the same style as previous paintings in this series.
