The parrot addresses Khujasta at the beginning of the fortieth night, from a Tuti-nama (Tales of a Parrot)
The image depicts a woman and a parrot in a scene from a Tuti-nama (Tales of a Parrot). The woman sits on a pink and gold patterned rug, wearing a yellow top with gold jewelry and an orange skirt with white polka dots. She sits on the floor in front of a blue and white platform with a green and yellow roof. The platform has a red fence behind it. A green parrot perches on a cylindrical object to the left of the woman. The woman appears to be speaking to the parrot, and her left hand is extended. The background includes a tree, green grass, and a brown border around the image with black writing in a foreign language. A yellow vase sits on the floor to the right of the woman. The overall scene suggests a serene and intimate moment between the woman and the parrot.
