Someone has once again mentioned the name of her to-be husband, and the girl is transported to the dreamy scape of her wedding day. She imagines her prince-groom, bringing a Doli (palaquin) and taking her to his palace. Sidharth Gavade presents the heart-warming emotions of a young girl on the threshold of adulthood, and her tender dream of wedding in this oil on canvas. With a lovely use of light and shadow, Gavade places the delicate and romantic visions of the girl in the backdrop, while she sits in the foreground, on a red recliner, dressed in yellow, the color of hope and joy.
Details on her attire and ornaments suggest that the subject is from the Western region of India. With her hands busied in combing her hair, and her twinkling eyes fixated outside the canvas, the astutely delineated expressions of the girl perfectly represent the jitters and joys of a young heart.
