Virhini Nayika, Love-Torn Heroine
The image depicts a painting of a woman in a pink dress and yellow shawl holding another person. The woman is standing under a tree with green leaves and white flowers. The tree has a thick trunk and branches that extend outwards. There are also flowers and grass around the base of the tree, and a body of water with lily pads and pink flowers in the foreground.
