Painting, in opaque watercolour on paper, Krishna, in gold peacock crown and yellow dhoti, stands, resting his arm on the back of a white cow, beside a stream, facing two gopis, one of whom folds her hands in greeting; the other holds an object or offering covered by a rumal. There is a pale green hillside behind, with an outcrop of rock and dark foliage on either side. The painting has a red border.
