17th century Kangara Indian Painting "Ragini Vasanti"

Morning everyone! I need some help in location more information on a stunning painting: "Ragini Vasanti", author unknown, 17th century India, possibility part of the "Ritu Rang" series. The original is in the National Museum in New Delhi (no info here). I have been searching the internet, but am unable to find any in-depth information and the only complete image of the painting I can find is associated with a stamp collecting website.

I think I exhausted the web info, so can some recommend a book that discusses India painting from this period/style?

The best thing to do is take the image to your local museum and see if you can get a response from the curator of art in that respective genre. Even if he or she is not familiar with it they have a large data base in which to research. You must present your inquiry with a professional letter though as the curator's time is very valuable.
