One of these paintings depicts a seated lady engrossed in playing a sitar or tambura while enjoying a hookah, while the other depicts a Dutch couple. Historical records shed light on the considerable influx of Dutch envoys to Hyderabad in the late 17th and 18th centuries. It is plausible that these paintings were commissioned for a Dutch patron.
