About the piece

Originating from the Kangra school of Himachal Pradesh around 1795, this vibrant miniature illustrates the Hindola Raga, a musical mode associated with the joy of spring and divinity. The scene captures Krishna and Radha on a suspended swing, while a lively group of attendants and musicians play drums and cymbals, set against a radiant golden landscape with grazing cattle in the background.
