This painting by Raja Ravi Varma portrays Draupadi during her exile, living under the name Sairandhri. Disguised as a servant, she carries a jar of wine while concealing her true identity. A guard watches her as she prepares to enter the royal court. Though dressed in humility, she is no ordinary woman—she is a queen forced into hiding. She is about to encounter Keechaka, a moment that will test her courage and dignity. The artwork captures tension, vulnerability, and the quiet strength of a woman enduring injustice.
