About the piece
Created in 18th-century Farrukhabad, this exquisite Mughal miniature captures a private moment on a palace terrace under the night sky. A princess reclines elegantly on a green bolster, surrounded by attendants who provide music and service, set against the striking contrast of a dark background and the intricate patterns of a crimson canopy.
