A popular Jaipur postcard shows a woman spinning cotton in front of a traditional door. The colors were applied by hand and with a stencil to a black and white printed postcard, fairly accurately, although drops coming off the wheel on left are visible and some purple has smeared on the woman's right leg. Note the blue collar.
