Krishna and Radha Avoid Embarrassment: Mottaita Bhava, from a Rasikapriya
The image depicts a scene with a man and woman seated on the floor, surrounded by text written in an Indian language. The man is on the left, wearing yellow pants and a white hat. He has a blue skin tone and is holding his hands up in front of him. The woman is on the right, wearing a pink dress and sitting cross-legged on a white and red mat. She has a gold headpiece and jewelry on her arms and legs. There is a green doorway to the right of the couple with a red table and a white umbrella above it. A bird sits on top of the umbrella. The background of the image is red, with a beige border around the edges. The image appears to be a page from a book, with text written in black ink at the top and bottom. The text is written in a language that appears to be Hindi or Sanskrit. The overall style of the image suggests that it is a traditional Indian painting or illustration.
