A sense of tropical lushness is hinted with the vegetation and palm-like tree in the alfresco view from the verandah while the centre of the painting is dominated by a wicker chair in the foreground. It is a jumble of different perspectives in subdued tones showing the bric-a-brac in a studio with vases, flowers, book-shelf, plants, side-table, wall hangings and carpet. While describing this painting, the artist said, “To me, these are mere symbols of everyday objects that surround us, bringing with them a deep sense of comfort that are frequently forgotten or taken for granted in our everyday life.”
