This is a chromolithograph depicting Radha and Krishna standing under a tree. Krishna plays the flute while Radha stands beside him holding the end of her veil with one hand. With her other hand, she holds the edge of her red skirt. They stand on lotus pedestals and two glowing halos frame their heads. The background depicts snow covered mountains and a water body filled with lotuses. The inscription at the bottom (now partially torn) identifies the subject in Bengali and Hindi as 'Sri Sri Radha Krishna' and the name of the printer in English as 'Chore Began Art Studio'.
