Krishna bids farewell, folio from a Bhagavata Purana - A Captivating Glimpse into Indian Heritage
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This stunning print captures the essence of an ancient Indian tale as Krishna, the beloved deity, bids farewell to his family. Created by an unknown artist around 1680-1690, this artwork is a part of the Bhagavata Purana series. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with rich colors and intricate details. In the foreground, Krishna stands tall in regal attire while gesturing towards his loved ones who gather on a beautiful balcony. The golden hues and delicate gold leaf accents add a touch of opulence to this masterpiece. Surrounded by majestic elephants adorned with ornate metal accessories and their mahouts wielding bullhooks gently guiding them, Krishna's departure becomes even more poignant. The horses and horsemen in the background symbolize power and royalty. As we delve deeper into this mesmerizing composition, we notice musicians playing traditional instruments like drums that fill the air with rhythmic melodies. This amalgamation of music and art creates an immersive experience for viewers. This photograph print not only offers us a glimpse into India's cultural heritage but also serves as an educational tool for those seeking knowledge about Hinduism and its mythological stories. It is housed at the Arthur M Sackler Gallery within Freer Gallery of Art - both renowned institutions dedicated to preserving artistic treasures from around the world. With its captivating beauty and historical significance, this artwork invites us to explore our roots while appreciating the craftsmanship that went into creating such masterful pieces centuries ago.
