The Krishnaite cult in northern India feels that the union of love and joy leads to a state of rapturous oblivion, sometimes culminating in erotic passions. Hence, all paintings of the Krishna theme dealing with the relationship between Radha and Krishna exude sensuality.

This wonderful painting on a circular marble plate shows the marvels of nature, the allure and beauty of young womanhood and the joyous presence of Krishna who captures the heart of every maiden. The blue-bodied god teasingly lifts the edge of his beloved's odhini that threatened to conceal her face from him. His eyes exude mischief as a mirthful smile plays on his lips. Even if he is not playing the flute, he must carry it all the time, as its part of his being. He wears a tiara with a peacock feather tucked in the side. He wears jewellery of all kinds, and of course, his yellow lower garment.

Radha, who is going to the river to fetch water in the pot held precariously at her waist, is intercepted by the naughty cowherd. She is wearing a wine coloured odhini and ghagra and a pale green choli and has demurely down cast eyes.

The background has thick foliage and a lotus filled river with sloping hills in the distance.
