The deceitful wife returns to her terrace after caressing her lover, from a Tuti-nama (Tales of a Parrot): Eighth Night
A colorful illustration shows a man and woman interacting across a brick wall. The woman wears orange and stands on a balcony or terrace attached to a white building with brown and gold accents. She has dark hair, a gold headpiece, and gold jewelry. A man in blue, with a red turban and white pants, stands below, holding a bow and several arrows. He appears to be throwing an object. The background features a blue sky, a green tree, and buildings with domed roofs. The scene is framed by a border, with a block of black text on a yellowed background below the image.
