About the piece
This 1770 Indian miniature captures a poetic narrative moment between a warrior and a heroine beneath a glowing full moon. Set on a stylized marble terrace populated by elegant white pigeons, the work showcases the intricate textile patterns, fine linework, and vibrant pigments characteristic of late 18th-century regional Indian painting traditions.
