The scene portrays a patron graciously compensating musicians for their enchanting performance. The text accompanying this ragini speaks of his profound contentment, happiness, and love. The artwork is an exquisite example of Indian heritage art, created with meticulous attention to detail using ink, opaque watercolor, gold on paper.
