The artwork is a photograph with a landscape orientation capturing an interior view of the Red Fort in Old Delhi, India, dated 1984. Two figures stand in the center of the image, gazing out through a large, ornate window composed of grid-like panels. The figure on the left wears a light-colored suit, while the figure on the right is draped in a pink patterned saree. The architectural details surrounding them feature intricate carvings and designs of Mughal architecture. Sunlight streams through the window, casting geometric shadows on the stone floor. Beyond the window, a grassy expanse and trees are visible.
