This intricate mixed media piece by Manoj Mitra, possibly a painting or print, presents a profile portrait of a woman.
She has long, dark hair and is dressed in ornate, pale yellow-beige attire adorned with fine, textured embellishments, complemented by a prominent necklace of light-toned beads. Her face is delicately shaped with a soft, expressive character, marked by a slightly aquiline nose and a look of serene introspection.
Clusters of small yellow flowers and berries appear throughout the composition, decorating her hair and cascading around her.
A subdued dark green background sets the scene, against which a light brown-tan songbird perches among the surrounding foliage and branches. The interplay of the dark background with the lighter features—the bird, flowers, and her attire—produces a striking and balanced visual effect. Merging traditional and modern stylistic elements, the artist employs textured brushwork and detailing to add depth and highlight, resulting in a composition that is visually rich and captivating.
