"Hastings (right) shrinks in terror at the apparition of Chait Singh (left) who emerges from clouds, a rope round his neck, his left hand raised threateningly. His turban is inscribed 'Cheyt Sing.' They stand on opposite sides of a rectangular table covered with a fringed cloth, behind which sits a lady reading a book which lies on the table: 'The State of India'. Her dress and large feathered hat are heavily decked with jewels. Hastings, who wears oriental dress with a jewelled turban, has overturned his chair; on its back are the initials 'W H.' Two Indian servants (right) stand behind Hastings. In the centre of the wall, behind the lady, are shelves on which are money-bags, some inscribed 'Rupees' and 'Pagod[as]', jewels, and a large turban inscribed 'Cheyt Syng.'"--British Museum online catalogue
