No data whatsoever on this image. I just thought it was bold and very cool.

Women in a Garden on a Moonlit Night. Ink and watercolor on paper, India, 1744, RISD Museum, ... a woman sings to entertain a young princess and her nurses on a marble terrace against a bright evening lit by the moon; The scene takes place in the intimate setting of the zenana, or women’s quarters, of the palace. The artist’s delicate brushwork is characteristic of this period of Mughal court.
