About the piece
This detailed watercolor from 1840 illustrates a scene from classical Indian literature, where King Dushyanta is stopped from hunting a deer by sages at a hermitage. Set against a backdrop of rolling green hills teeming with wildlife, the painting showcases the fine lines and rich palette characteristic of the Pahari style, featuring a majestic horse-drawn chariot and meticulous botanical rendering.
