Palace Interior

Ragunath

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The image shows a drawing of an interior of a palace. The drawing is divided into two sections. The top section shows a balcony with a railing and four brown double doors with diamond-shaped panes. There are three windows on either side of the doors. The walls have ornate carvings and designs. The bottom section shows a large room with yellow walls and a high ceiling. There are yellow curtains hanging from the ceiling, and a staircase leading up to the balcony. The floor is light-colored and appears to be made of stone or tile. The walls have some faint drawings on them. The overall atmosphere suggests a grand and ornate space, possibly a palace or other formal building.
