AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Canvas 1: The canvas shows a royal or noble figure (probably a Mughal ruler or prince) seated on a throne in a palace-like setting.
Around him stand and kneel various court attendants and advisers, dressed in traditional Mughal attire with turbans.
One servant offers a document or letter, while another holds a fan (chowrie) — a symbol of status and honor.

Canvas 2: The canvas depicts a scene from Hindu mythology, presumably Krishna (the blue figure) with a group of gopis (cowherd girls). This tableau is common in Indian art and symbolizes the divine love and joy that Krishna shares with his devotees.
