Princesses Gather at a Fountain was produced in Farrukhabad, in the province of Avadh, where the painting tradition primarily employed a yellowish green color for landscapes. In this work, the rolling hillside bears this trademark chartreuse coloring. Because of Farrukhabad's close proximity to the Nawabs of Avadh—80 miles from Lucknow and 160 miles from Faizabad—artists frequently traveled between the courts. Many Farrukhabad paintings adopt the palette and technique of the Lucknow artist Muhammad Faqirullah Khan, who depicted female figures with elongated lower torsos, sharp noses, and oval faces. Princesses Gather at a Fountain invokes this trademark style. On closer inspection, the elongation of the female body was perhaps an extension of Persian poetics. In many Persian poems found on, behind, or alongside Avadhi miniature painting, women's bodies are compared to a slender cypress tree (sarv); indeed, the many female bodies that punctuate this painting are very cypress-like.
