41 reviews

A miniature Indian Punjab Hills, kingdom of Jasrota, Art, mixed media, ink, opaque watercolor, and gold, on paper painting after Nainsukh, Indian, ca. c. 1710 to 1778. The painting depicts a scene with Krishna and Radha appear as the ruler Raja Balwant Singhs devotional vision. Nainsukh has subtly created two contrasting worlds, one occupied by the deities and the other by their devotee, who stands at the threshold. Balwant Singh looks into Krishnas eyes and in turn receives his Lords grace. The setting is a terrace of the rajas court framed by a landscape; the orange canopy invites the viewer into the divine space of the gods, who sit on a gilded, cushioned throne. The painting is decorated with a frame made in floral and foliage designs. Inscribed, on the backside. Circa: 1950s. Antique Miniature Indian Paintings, Wall Art, Home Decor, and Collectibles. One of a kind artwork.
