About the piece

Created by the renowned master Nihâl Chand, this lyrical miniature captures Radha and Krishna on a vibrant red boat surrounded by female attendants. Set against the backdrop of the ethereal white palaces of Kishangarh and a dramatic, layered sunset, the work exemplifies the refined Rajput court style with its signature elongated features and sophisticated, rhythmic composition.
