About the Item
Another charming painting of Lord Krishna and his paramour Radha along with her consort seated in an elaborate pavilion while having a gestured conversation. The interior setting is marked by arched niches and set in the middle of trees of various kinds.
At the top of the frame is a yellow panel written with three lines of devanagari script. The whole is framed by a continuous band of red and blue flower heads and meandering green leaves.
The painting is thickly applied in gouache with mineral pigments and gold and silver highlights.
It was likely painted in Rajasthan and dates to late 19th century to early 20th century.
Krishna was a god (an incarnation of god Vishnu) who accomplished great feats and defeated insurmountable demons. He is also considered the most playful amongst gods and an epic lover of godly proportions. His love story with Radha (a married woman) has been the subject of much poetry and worship for centuries as it symbolized the divine love.
The frame measures (H x W) 16 x 13 1/2 inches and the painting as viewable measures 11 1/8 x 8 1/2 inches.

Origins of Kalighat painting written by the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, England:
According to legend, Lord Shiva, the god of dance and destruction, was deep in meditation on Mount Kailash when he received news of the death of his consort, Sati, an avatar (or human manifestation) of the goddess Kali.
