Radha and Hindu God Krishna celebrating the festival Holi is a 1805 unspecified by Unknown, a Mughal Painting work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a lively outdoor scene with lots of people in bright, colorful clothes. In the center, two figures—one blue, one pink—stand out, surrounded by a crowd throwing powder and water. Above them, two women watch from balconies, while musicians play in the background. The colors are bold, with greens, reds, and golds everywhere. The blue figure is likely Krishna, a Hindu god, and the pink one is Radha, his companion. They’re celebrating Holi, a festival of colors and joy.
