Kaikubh Ragini is beautifully portrayed as a woman with a musical instrument in her hand surrounded by peacocks. According to the inscription, she is the one whose face is like a moon, wearing a garland of Champa flowers, who looks with sarcasm and is very unpredictable in her manner, she is Kaikubha Ragini.
Nestled in the lap of nature, the subject of this Ragamala watercolor on canvas by Artist is Ragini Gujari. The mood of the heroine (nayika) in this Ragamala painting is called- “Vipralabdha sringara” (love or sringara which has been denied a chance of expression, resulting in a gloominess of the heart).
In pain and distress, Ragini Gujari often walks out of her palace, and into the forest, where she gives voice to her emotions by singing and playing Veena (lute). Under the shade of a tree that is embraced by a flowering creeper, sits Ragini Gujari, brimming with the sweetness of love. She is wearing a yellow lehenga, orange chunri, and pink choli, along with pearl and gemmed ornaments.
Like the flower-laden creeper which is full of beauty but droops under the weight of its hopeful blossoming, Ragini Gujari's head sinks as she broodingly strings the Veena. Hearing the heart-wrenching tunes of the Ragini, a pair of deer has come to visit the origin of the tunes, looking innocently at the distressed beauty.

Ragamala Paintings: The Visual Music for the Soul
Ragamala paintings are the beautiful fusion of art, poetry and music that are inspired by the classical musical modes called ‘ragas. ‘Ragamala’ literally translates as the ‘garland of ragas’ that has the capacity to evoke certain emotions depending on the type of raga represented in a painting. There are mainly six ragas called Bhairavi, Shri, Dipaka, Malkaunsa, Megha and Hindola. The ragas are considered to be in human forms and therefore accompanied by wives (raginis), sons( ragaputras) and daughters( ragaputris).
Each ragamala painting represents a particular season, day and even time of the day depicting a perfect set when a particular raga is sung. Each ragamala painting is depicted in a particular colour evoking a certain mood/emotion in the viewer’s mind which is occasionally accompanied by the poetic text at the top of the painting. The paintings generally represent a love theme that depicts a nayak or nayika in a human form, engaged in a certain activity at a particular time of the day, epitomising the emotion of the raga.
