The seated figure of woman with hands folded has elements of the tribhanga or the bent axis from the traditional Indian iconography as the painting is infused with intense lyricism. The picture is livened up with the presence of landscape in the form of trees on either side of the seated woman and probably a hut with distinctive wall decorations. The painting also speaks of Jamini Roy's preference for folk styles and simplification of forms.
