"O you whose teeth are radiant, if you are genuinely angry with me, then strike me with the sharp arrows of your glance. Bind me in the ropes of your arms. Cut my lips with the biting of your teeth. Do whatever will make you happy."(Jayadeva, Gita Govinda, verse 271)?Bowing before Radha outside her pavilion, Krishna mollifies his lover, who is furious at his philandering and threatens to chase him away with a stick. But Radha cannot resist his supplication, nor her own love, and she acquiesces to continue their romance indoors; Krishna has disarmed her and the chamber glows red with passion once again.?The painting was produced by the royal atelier of Mewar during the reign of Maharana Jagat Singh I (r.1628 -52), which was led by the prominent artists Sahibdin and Manohar. Another Gita Govinda page ascribed to Manohar is in the Metropolitan Museum of Art (1985.398.12).
