Painting of a woman looking from a terrace - Painting of a woman looking from a terrace North India, Mewar, 18th century Gouache on paper depicting a woman looking out from the terrace of a palace. The composition is unbalanced but the proportions of the characters give an account of their proximity on the perspective plane. We therefore know that the protagonist of the painting is the girl on the right and we perceive an almost frenetic life outside the building, with minor characters engaged in various activities in what looks like an encampment. The luxuriant nature and the two antelopes in the foreground seem to describe a moment of tranquillity. Provenance: Private collection Brescia, Italy. H. 13 X 13.3 cm
