About the piece
Painted in 1789 by Francesco Renaldi during his time in India, this exquisite oil portrait depicts a woman reclining on a rug with a hookah. The artist masterfully captures the translucent quality of her garments and the soft, diffused light of the interior, creating a sense of serene, old-world elegance that bridges European technique with South Asian subject matter.
