The painting A White Marble Fall Simla is a soft watercolour, portraying two women enjoying the cool, foamy water - white as marble, as indicated in the Hungarian inscription - dressed in bright summer dresses with flowers in their hair.

 

This work was painted by Sher-Gil in Simla in 1923, when she was just ten years old. It was also around this time that she won her first prize for art - a fifty rupee cash award - for painting her first responses to cinema.

 

Sher-Gil's fondness for portraying female figures and relationships, seen in her early works, would remain with her throughout her career, manifesting in later oil paintings which often depicted women and were "handled with great sensitivity and not with superficial pity or condescension."
