In a palace a woman is resting on a bed, behind her head a maidservant blowing her cool and in a window opening a second maidservant who puts her finger to her lips to silence Krishna; he stands in a doorway on the right with a drawn bow ready to shoot a lotus-headed arrow at the beloved; in the foreground two ladies making music; at the top of the scene a wide strip of text in old Indies on a yellow background. The scene is framed by a wide red border and separated from it by black and white framing lines.
