The posted image of a woman on the left side is not a painting. It is a photograph taken as part of the re-creation of Raja Ravi Varma’s painting – ‘Radha in the Moonlight’. The woman in the photo is an actress. Her name is Swathi. The photograph can be found on her official Facebook page, Swathi Reddy.

On Google Reverse Image Search, the image on the left was found to be posted on an Instagram page with the description “Raja Ravi Varma recreation series with @swati194 ? | wonderful captures by the team @sruvamstudios”.
Also ‘Sruvam Studios’can be noticed in the photograph. The photo was found to be uploaded on 16 June 2019 on the Instagram account of Sruvam Studious. Other similar photos and a making video can be seen on their profile. The original painting by the great Indian painter and artist Raja Ravi Verma  “Radha in the Moonlight” can be found here.

The image shared below can be seen to compare. The first half is original by Raja Ravi Varma and the second is recreated by the team Sruvam Studios.
