(British Library: Mewar Ramayana)

From the Library site: At the gate of Kiskindha Laksmana is welcomed by Bali's son, Angada, and other monkeys, while inside the palace the crowned Sugriva, seated with Tara on a couch, is advised by his ministers. An arcade has been added to the side of the palace structure to indicate the gateway. Despite Tara's attempt to calm his passion, Laksmana then angrily reproaches Sugriva for neglecting his side of the bargain with Rama.
