It is said that during the Majapahit Kingdom led by Prabu Brawijaya, his condition was peaceful and prosperous. Prabu Brawijaya is a wise and wise king. He loves and protects his people very much. This is evidenced by the development of art in the territory of his empire. The peace and prosperity of the kingdom is supported by a beautiful queen. Prabu Brawijaya really loved and admired his queen. As an expression of his love, he wanted to immortalize it in a painting. At that time in the Kingdom of Majapahit there lived a great artist named Prabangkara. His paintings are beautiful and popular throughout the archipelago. His popularity was heard by King Brawijaya.

One day Prabu Brawijaya came to Prabangkara and the dipper greeted him.

 "Prabangkara, I have heard of your greatness throughout this country. I also received reports from the soldiers that you are the only famous painter in this country," said King Brawijaya.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the flattery I have received, I am ready to accept whatever Your Majesty's orders and orders," Prabangkara replied.

"Yes my servant, I want to manifest a sense of love and admiration for my queen. Therefore I order you to make the empress's painting as beautiful as possible," ordered Prabu Brawijaya.

"Okay Sir. I am ready to carry out Your Majesty's orders," Prabangkara replied.

After receiving the King's order, Prabangkara made preparations. Before carrying out the order, Prabangka did the first step. The men consisted of fasting for seven days, mutih or eating without taste, ngrowot or eating only fruit, and mendem or eating food that came from the ground or tubers. After finishing his lelaku, Prabangkara began to paint the Empress. Part by part of the empress's body was painted on the existing canvas.

With all his heart, soul and body, he finished the painting. After it was finished, the painting was still being looked at and refined again so that later King Brawijaya would be satisfied and happy to receive it. When Prabangkara was observing and admiring the painting of the Empress without clothes that he was painting, suddenly Prabangkara's hand touched his painting tool. The tool hits certain parts of the painting and leaves smudges. He tried to clean the stain but it couldn't be removed. The stain was still faint and due to limited time, he gave up and handed over the painting. At the appointed time for Prabangkara to meet the King, Prabu Brawijaya was very happy because his painting was beautiful and exactly like the Empress. But when he was looking in more detail, suddenly the expression on Prabu Brawijaya's face changed. The originally bright face turned bright red. It shocked everyone present at the place.
