Asavri ragini

A beautiful depiction of the Asavari ragini showing a lady seated on a rock in the forest playing on a veena. A snake is twisted on her right arm and another snake with raised up hood is in front. A snake on either side twisted around trees with raised hoods towards her. She has been separated from her lover and has taken up ascetic life. She has a way with snakes and can sing and dance to charm them. A morning ragini, the composition shows trees, flower plants and a water body with lotuses in the foreground. A vibrant blue sky is the backdrop. A creeper design border in gold against orange and ornate foliate design around the border enhance the beauty of this painting.
