A Disconsolate Lady on a Terrace with Attendants
The image depicts A Disconsolate Lady on a Terrace with Attendants by an unknown artist. The scene shows a woman reclining on a raised platform, surrounded by two female attendants. The woman on the platform wears a gold skirt and orange top, has dark hair and is barefoot. She sits on a green and orange patterned pillow with her legs tucked to one side, her head resting on her right arm. The attendant on the left wears an orange sari with gold jewelry and holds a string with an object on the end in her right hand and what appears to be a small red apple in her left. The attendant on the right wears a yellow and blue sari and faces the disconsolate lady with her hands raised. The platform is white with pink trim. The woman's bare feet protrude over the edge. The background features a large green building with ornate details and a red and white patterned roof. A tree with green leaves and pink flowers stands behind the platform. The sky is yellow at the top and fades to white. The image is framed in red with a thin black border.
