तुम नहीं समझोगे केवल किया हुआ इसलिए अपने किये पर वाणी फेरता हूँ और लगता है मुझे उस पर लगभग पानी फेरता हूँ
तब भी नहीं समझते तुम तो मैं उलझ जाता हूँ लगता है जैसे नाहक अरण्य में गाता हूँ
और चुप हो जाता हूँ फिर लजाकर अपनी वाणी को इस तरह स्वर से सजाकर!

Sita Abandoned
This deeply poignant work captures one of the most heartbreaking moments in the Ramayana, when the noble queen Sita finds herself alone and banished in the deep wilderness. Archibald Herman Muller, a master of blending Western academic oil techniques with Indian mythological subjects, portrays Sita not merely as a mythological archetype, but as a living, breathing woman grappling with sudden isolation. Her delicate hands rest gently on the forest floor, and her sorrowful gaze lifts upward in quiet petition. The surrounding dense, shadowy woods mirror the profound solitude of her exile, yet a subtle warmth emanates from her figure, symbolizing her enduring inner purity and spiritual grace.
