Vinoda Raga, the eighth son of Hindol Raga in the Ragamala of Kṣemakarṇa, is represented in this painting attributed to the Basohli or Mankot school. Executed in opaque pigments on paper, the composition is framed by a black rule border and a red margin, with a Takri inscription that suggests regional patronage in the western Himalayan courts. The iconography embodies the raga’s thematic associations with joy and sensual indulgence, a noble or divine figure is depicted seated on a striped carpet, attended by two richly adorned female companions. The minimal background enhances the figures’ interaction, visually translating the raga’s melodic and emotional essence. A closely related composition, also representing Vinoda Raga and attributed to the Mankot school, is held in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London (acc. no. IM.66-1930).
