The lady, the subject of the painting stands straight – her henna-painted feet peeking from her lehenga (skirt) which has been painted marvelously, with its folds perfectly brought out by the use of light-dark shading and floral designs against a pretty blue fabric. Tucked close to her slender waist, in the skirt is a translucent chunri, bordered by pleasing golden Gota work and embellished with tiny white dots. The delicate folds of the chunri have been tastefully painted, adding realism to the watercolor. The face of the lady in this painting is drawn keeping in mind the ancient Indian standards of eternal beauty- arched eyebrows, elongated eyes, a sharp nose, and delicate lips add to the mystique of the royal performer. Her ornaments are immensely exquisite and presented in the painting with a high degree of detail that imbues them with a mesmerizingly realistic feel. Against the pitch-black background of the painting, the lady, with her flawless beauty blooms like a lotus blossom, in the murky ponds.
