Bani-Thani or the bedecked lady is a theme popularized by the royal miniatures of Mughals and Rajputs. The subject is a youthful lady, attired in traditional lehenga choli of Rajasthan, with her moon-like face radiating beauty. This painting presents Bani Thani encased within a henna and Mughal-miniature-inspired ovular frame, engaged in adorning herself. Jewels, pearls, and gold ornament her lovely form, which is exquisitely presented in the artwork. In her henna-covered hands, the maiden holds a gold-framed mirror while her other hand holds the strings of her Maang-tika (hair ornament), which she sets on her head, giving final touches to her enchanting Sringaar (ornamentation).
