About the Artwork +

Jayesh Sharma captures a resplendent portrayal of Lord Krishna at the centre of his divine dance with the gopis. At the heart of this captivating composition stands Lord Krishna, the eternal flute player and embodiment of divine love. His enchanting dark complexion radiates with a celestial glow as he holds the flute, poised to create melodies that stir the hearts of all who behold him. On either side of Krishna are the gopis, the beloved companions of Vrindavan, adorned in a vibrant tapestry of colors. Their attire showcases a symphony of hues,yellow, blue, pink, and brown,reflecting their individuality and the diversity of their devotion. Away from Krishna,gopis create celestial music, with some playing drums and others strumming the veena. The harmonious melodies blend with the rhythm of Krishna's divine flute, creating an enchanting symphony that transcends the earthly realm. In the foreground, three peacocks grace the scene, their feathers painted in vivid, iridescent colors. One peacock stands with its magnificent plumage spread wide, symbolising the enchantment of divine love and beauty. The peacock, closely associated with Lord Krishna, adds to the sense of grace and splendor. The grass field, rendered with meticulous detail, sways gently in the breeze, creating an atmosphere of serenity and natural abundance. The lush background adds depth and richness to the composition, infusing the scene with opulence and spirituality. The artwork is a visual symphony that transcends time and space.

Pichwai Art


Pichwai art (also known as pichhavai, pichhvai, pechhavai etc) is a traditional form of painting that originated in Nathdwara, Rajasthan. These paintings are typically used as decorative backdrops in Hindu temples, particularly those dedicated to Lord Shrinathji or Krishna. Pichwai literally means ‘that which hangs from the back’ and comes from the Sanskrit words ‘Pich – back and Wais- hanging. Other than its artistic appeal, it is created with the intention to narrate the tales of Krishna to its devotees. History and Tradition The origins of Pichwai art date back to the late 17th century when the Nathdwara temple was established in Rajasthan. These were traditionally commissioned by the temple priests for religious worship and ceremonies and often narrate the stories of Krishna's life, like his childhood Leela, the Raas Leela, Govardhan Leela, and other significant events. Other subjects depicted are the changing seasons, with detailed representations of flora, fauna, and traditional Rajasthani architecture. Techniques Pichwai paintings are known for their detailed work and vivid use of colors. Traditionally, the paintings are created on cloth or canvas using natural dyes and pigments. Artists begin with the sketch of the painting and later natural colours are filled with brushes. Occasionally, they are enhanced by adding gems and crystals. Gold and silver leaf are also used to add a touch of opulence to the paintings.
