Yeah. Isn't that something? What a lovely piece of art, a true tribute to Raja Ravi Varma. I love his paintings. I have nine of them displayed in my home.

I was given 2 of them by college's 2 best friends on my wedding, along with a third paining. Was tough, but I lugged them here when I came here.

For a long time, those 2 paintings were the only piece of furniture in the living room of my new apartment here. Got many many many comments from all relatives and friends. Is in the background of so many of our pictures.

Stayed up in the second apartment too, as well as the dining of the 1st house. Were moved to the garage in this house... sometimes when I am entering the garage, I look up at them, and am reminded of all the stories and comments behind those paintings. And of my two friends too. Should call them one of these days... been so long now.
