Raja Balwant Singh's Vision of Krishna and Radha

A man in a white patterned robe and pointed cap stands with clasped hands beneath a bright orange canopy, facing a blue-skinned Krishna and a woman seated together on a gilded bed. Green hills, a lake, and an ornate white pavilion fill the background of this ink, opaque watercolor, and gold painting on paper.
