The Heroine Who Waits Anxiously for Her Absent Lover: Utka Nayika

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Heroine Who Waits Anxiously for Her Absent Lover: Utka Nayika by artist Nainsukh. A framed painting of a woman standing on green foliage. She wears a pink top with short sleeves and an orange and yellow sari with green circular patterns. The woman's dark hair is parted in the middle with the sides pulled back and a few strands falling on her shoulders; she has a bindi on her forehead, earrings, a nose ring, and bracelets on both hands. She faces left, looking up, with her right arm bent at the elbow. A tree trunk is behind and to her right. A flowering purple tree and green trees are on a brown hill on the left. The sky above is dark with clouds. The frame is brown with a lighter brown inner border.
