Haripura posters by Nandalal capture moments of everyday Indian village life and culture. In this poster, he has depicted a woman playing 'Rudra Vina' (a large plucked string instrument used in Hindustani classical music), filled with action and expressive of her mood and character. The illustration has been executed with vibrant earthy colours and spontaneous, energetic contouring lines aptly limn the figure with the artist's personal sensibilities.
