Ragamala paintings frequently depict maidens representing raginis. Malasri Ragini is the wife of Bhairava raga. The two adorned maidens with halos represent the ragini, and are seen in a glade, deep in conversation. The artist adds depth to the landscape by depicting a stream in the foreground and a lake toward the horizon. The variations of green hues in the field and vegetation create a lush landscape.
