Puriya Ragaputra: Page from the Dispersed "Boston" Ragamala Series (Garland of Musical Modes)
A blue-skinned male figure playing a stringed instrument sits on a yellow and orange daybed with a brown-skinned female figure; both figures wear traditional Indian clothing. The daybed has a brown frame and sits on a white floor; several small objects sit along the bottom edge of the daybed. The background shows a white room with a red and yellow overhang; the overhang is supported by red pillars. Above the overhang is a blue wall with a gray tiled roof and a black sky above. The entire scene sits within a tan border with dark-colored speckles; black non-English text sits at the top.
