Gouache on paper-18th centuty

Srimad Bhagavatam - 10.30.44 Translation:
The gopis again came to the bank of the Kalindi. Meditating on Krsna and eagerly hoping He would come, they sat down together to sing of Him.

Commentary by: A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
As stated in the Katha Upanisad (1.2.23), yam evaisa vrnute tena labhyah: The Supersoul can be realized by that person whom He chooses. Thus the gopis fervently pray that Krsna come back to them.
