About this work
On the right, Khurshid, wearing orange, and Utarid embrace after a long separation. The three men standing on the left with heads hanging in shame have just confessed the misdeeds they committed against Khurshid. Upon admitting these transgressions, they are miraculously cured of the ailments that inflicted them.
