A note on the reverse of each illustration reads:
"No. 28 Bengali Ragini. A beautiful lady decides to remain unmarried and live in the jungle in the meditation of Lord Shiva. She hopes her lover will return She likes the quiet of jungle life (A friend who fans her stands by)".
"No. 9 Shabhaichi Ragini. Description of a beautiful woman in full make up who has remained unmarried in the hope that some day her lover will return to her She is studying Veddas during the long period of seperation and is justified in her hopes (She is sorrounded by comopanions who are full of rejoicing a merry making on their own account which fact dosn't disturb her) [sic]". Both inscriptions seem to relate to other illustrations from the same series.
