Gwalior Fort on its sheer rock plateau in Madhya Pradesh. The long Man Singh palace runs along the cliff-top on the right, its sandstone face worked in ochre and brown, while a domed chhatri pavilion sits to the left. A pale ramp road snakes up the steep cliff, with small figures making the climb. The rockface drops in heavily loaded palette-knife wedges of umber, ochre and olive green, and a thin band of water reflects at the foot of the cliff on the right. Sandhya Kaushik keeps the sky a soft wash of peach, pink and pale blue above the plateau.

The rising ramp pulls the eye up the cliff and gives the piece real movement. It suits a living-room wall, a study, or a hallway where the diagonal can lead you along.
