So this painting is then incorrect ? Because Yamuna gave a clear path to Krsna ? But I have read somewhere in Sastra that Yamuna at one point rose Her waters to Krsna would touch Yamunaji with His lotusfeet ,,,so both seems possible, though Srila Sanatana Goswami has stated Yamuna gave Vasudeva a clear path to walk to Gokula ,like when Moses and the Jews went out of Egypt,that example came to mind ,Sri Moses asked the Lord to make a clear path
When Vasudeva crossed Yamuna ,was the water separated complexly ,or was Vasudeva into Yamuna water to his neck ,I am not sure of the detail ,I will look in Srimad Bhagavatam and Garga Samhita I think the Krsna Lila Stava by Srila Sanatana Goswami gives a clear answer :

TRANSLATION
1) O Lord Krsna, in three births You became the Son of Devaki and Vasudeva. When You were born in Your father's presence, You were pleased by His sincere worship, and You granted all benedictions to him.
2) O beautiful Krsna, O Supreme Spirit whose form resembles that of a a human child, and who performs pastimes in that eternal form, giving great transcendental bliss to Your mother and father, (all glories unto You).
3) O Krsna, You instructed (Vasudeva) how You could escape (the wrath of Kamsa) and You bewildered the guards standing at the prison gate and caused them all to fall asleep. It was by Your arrangement that Your potency Maya was born as the daughter of Yasoda.
4) O Krsna, Your potency unlocked all the doors and You were carried away by Your father. The hoods of the serpent Ananta Sesa became Your umbrella, and the Yamuna river gave You a clear path.
5) O Lord Krsna, O Great Auspiciousness of Vraja, You were placed on Yasoda's bed. And she, Nanda Mahraja and the other cowherd men, bewildered by sleep, did not notice. (All glories unto You).
THE YAMUNA GAVE YOU A CLEAR PATH
