Palace women enjoy music by the side of a cascade

The painting depicts a scene of palace women enjoying music by the side of a cascade. The scene is set indoors, with a large white and pink building in the background. The building has three openings with red and gold awnings, and green trees are visible through them. Inside the building, there is a gray door and a white wall with a decorative design. Seven women are present in the scene. One woman sits on the floor, smoking a hookah. Two women stand near her, one holding a plate. Another woman sits on a low platform, covered with a pink cloth. On the left side, two women stand, one holding a fly-whisk and the other a sword. On the right side, two women sit, one playing a drum. In the foreground, on the right, there are two small gold objects, possibly a lamp and a dish. The painting is framed in dark blue and has a white border. The artist's style suggests it is a traditional Indian painting.
