At the ledge of a window are two women conversing with each other. The ledge itself is white and covered with a decorative cloth that is red with scrolling flowers and leaves. It has a ruffled yellow border. The archways of the window are marble with carved leaves and painted flowers and leaves. The red and green curtain is rolled up at the top. The figure on the right wears an unusual headdress of red and gold. The front has an ornament with a small black plume. She wears a dress with a gold skirt that is decorated with flowers and a long-sleeved white translucent top with gold flowers. Her hair is loose and cascades down her back. She is adorned with earrings, necklaces, bracelets, and armlets. She faces to the right, and in her right hand she holds a small gold cup. She faces her companion, who wears a dress with a maroon purple skirt with gold flowers and a long-sleeved beige top with purple flowers. Her hair is partially covered by a translucent green scarf with gold dots and trim. It wraps around the front of her body and over her left shoulder. She is adorned with bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and a head ornament. She has her right pointer finger in front of her lips. In her left hand she holds a small gold flask. Rajput Style.
