The use of bright colors and the depiction of women and girls together emphasize the importance of communal bonding and tradition in the scene. The painting style appears to be somewhat folk-art inspired, capturing the essence of a traditional Indian scene with its use of colors and depiction of a communal ritual. The simplicity and vibrancy of the painting bring out the joy and togetherness of the women in the celebration. |
