The Brahmins and the queens in their litters approach. Kausalya points out the place by the river where Rama offered the ritual water and laments the pitiable quality of the pi??as offered to her dead husband. The three exiles then greet the queens (Sita is shown embracing Kaikeyi rather than Kausalya); and then separately the Brahmins and the minister Sumantra. The four brothers and Sita sit outside the hut (top left). Bharata requests Rama to ascend the throne; but Rama refuses to disobey the command of his father.Udaipur; c. 1653.From: Ramayana.Add. 15296 (1); f. 118London; British Library.
