This is an illustration to the musical mode Gujari Ragini, represented here as a young lady playing a vina, a plucked instrument. The mood is one of yearning, and the parrot may be seen as a symbol of her absent lover. This painting was formerly owned by Sir Elijah Impey, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Calcutta from 1774 to 1783 and a renowned collector of paintings.
