Zenana Exterior
Exterior of a Zenana

Description: 

This image provides a visual on what the Zenana the Spirit resided in may have looked like. In the text, the Spirit frequently mentions spending time in the gardens or beneath the trees – the location of her inevitable death. Although the location itself appears beautiful, one can imagine how lonely it would be to reside here in solitude.
