About the piece
Created around 1750 by the master artist Nihâl Chand, this painting exemplifies the Kishangarh school of Rajasthan. It portrays Krishna and Radha in intimate conversation, seated upon a giant lotus blossom against a backdrop of a lush garden and white balustrade. The work is renowned for its highly stylized figures with almond-shaped eyes and the delicate, masterful use of gold and vibrant gouache on cotton.
