'The lightning is restless as it flashes in the turbulent clouds.
The peacocks announce the mating of earth & sky with their shrill cries.
All lovers meet in the month of Shravana- so then why forsake me my love?'
So goes the footnote to this c1820 #Pahari #IndianMiniaturePainting from #Kangra #HimachalPradesh #India on Bonhams auction of 20 March 2025
