Interesting story of Krishna has been portrayed in this painting of Madhubani style .

The  painting depicts Raas Leela where Lord Krishna dances with Radha and her sakhis (gopis). The Indian classical dance of Kathak evolved from the 'Raslila of Braj and Manipuri Classical Dance'. The term, rasa meaning "aesthetics" and lila meaning "act," "play" or "dance" is a concept from Hinduism, which roughly translates to "play (lila) of aesthetics (rasa)," or more broadly as "Dance of Divine Love".

The Madhubani paintings is an ancient style of painting that originates 2500 years ago. Following the age-old methods of painting, the artist, till date, mixes cow-dung and rock-salt glue to the paints. While cow dung is used for the shine it imparts to the colored patches, glue helps the paint to bind well with the special handmade paper used for these paintings.
