An Indian Miniature Painting Depicting Gauri Ragini Awaiting Her Lord, Circa 2000. An Indian miniature painting executed in opaque watercolour on paper, illustrating a romantic Ragamala subject identified as Gauri Ragini. The composition portrays a modestly dressed woman seated within a boat upon gently rippling waters, holding a small flame or lamp in her raised hand as if in hopeful anticipation. She is shown in profile, adorned in a red sari with delicate ornamentation, her posture composed and devotional. Behind her rises a richly coloured architectural pavilion with a domed chhatri and arched windows, rendered in warm tones of red and orange. The stepped architectural form and lattice detailing add depth and decorative rhythm to the scene. Approximately 16.7 x 11.9cm
