Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a colorful illustration of a scene. The man on the left has blue skin and is shirtless, wearing a red cloth around his waist and a yellow cloth over his shoulder. He has a flute to his lips. He faces four women standing to his right. The woman closest to him wears a yellow dress and has her hands clasped. The three women beside her wear colorful saris and hold golden pots above their heads. In the foreground are seven white cows and a calf on green grass. The background features buildings with white, orange, and red walls and white roofs, with white birds flying above. The image is framed by a red border with a gold floral pattern.
