Three Indian gouache paintings depicting Krishna and Radha, framed, first half C20th
Three Indian gouache paintings, one depicting Krishna and the other two depicting Krishna and Radha, all with lady attendants in stylised landscape scenes within elaborate floral borders. The Hindu God, Krishna, and his beloved consort, Radha, were often portrayed in Indian paintings from the early to mid C20th. The relationship between them was complex. Radha was acknowledged as the Supreme Goddess and Krishna was held to achieve fulfilment only by devotional service from her. Devotees would worship her in order to attain Krishna through her and this may be intended in some of the compositions here. This triptych probably derives from a larger set but stands on its own as an excellent and atmospheric example of Indian art. Dating is probably to the early to mid C20th but the frames are later.| Size: | 36.5cm x 24.5cm |
