Krishna Woos Radha: Page from the Dispersed "Boston" Rasikapriya (Lover's Breviary)
A man and woman in traditional Indian clothing are in a forest. The woman, wearing a brown dress with an orange and white bodice and red shoes, has her right arm around the man's neck. The man, dressed in a white shirt and pink skirt with a green border, faces her. They stand among trees with sparse foliage and green grass. The scene is rendered in a colorful, illustrative style. A block of foreign text, possibly in Sanskrit, is written in black and orange ink at the top. The artwork appears aged, with a beige background and visible signs of wear.
