Visual Description :
The scene is laid in a garden on the bank of the river Jamuna flowing in the foreground. In the background, under a pavillion, Radha reclining against a cushion discloses her love for Krishna. Outside, against a deep saffron background musicians are spiritedly playing their instruments. In the foreground, Krishna is seen dancing with his Gopis playing musical instruments. One of them is preparing coloured water and another playing the colour syringes.
