Valmiki sees the hunter killing one of a pair of Kraunch birds

The painting is in deep yellow background, sage Valmiki with two disciples returning to his hermitage after his ablutions and morning prayers. He feels sorrow to see the condition of wounded bird. He looks to hunter on the right. Blood gushes from the injured bird's beak and the other bird is rushing towards its mate.
