The story of a one-woman army that is observed seated on a bench is told in Madhusudan Das' masterwork, "The Guardian of the Guardian," which he painted. The way the watercolors have sunk into the surface transports the observer to a woman who won't let anyone defend her. She is at her strongest when she is by herself, and she loves not to have to wait for anyone. However, the picture reveals that she has only ever been friends with a big, old tree, preferring to sit in its shade and relying on it to protect her in some respects.
