Krishna Stroking Radha's Feet is a 1890 by Shri Gobinda Chandra Roy, a Impressionism work, depicting Bengal, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This image shows two figures in a stylized, patterned scene. One person is kneeling, gently touching the feet of another who sits on a raised platform. The seated figure wears layered necklaces and a headpiece, while the kneeling figure has a crown and ornate robes. Both are surrounded by intricate designs—flowers, swirls, and geometric shapes—filling the space around them. The scene looks like it’s inspired by a story, with the kneeling figure showing deep respect. The patterns and bold outlines give it a distinct, almost graphic feel.
