The
Lilas of Krishna and Radha in Indian culture are the pinnacle of Sringaar- the
emotion of romance and love. Among the many delicate tales, the episode of
Radha’s Maan (pretense of being upset with Krishna) and the dark-skinned Lord
cajoling her in various ways is one of the most alluring and heart-warming
ones. In this wall-hanging painting, the Maan-Lila of Radha
Krishna has been presented in the idiom of the Kishangarh School of Rajput
paintings. Against a backdrop of the natural landscape and regal architecture
of Rajputana, sit Radha-Krishna, surrounded by Radha’s Sakhis. The immediate
background of this scene is formed by a blooming plantation of banana trees,
which symbolize fertility and auspiciousness, and parrot pairs, signifying
conjugal affection and romance.
On a
spread of lotuses, Sri Radha is positioned in a graceful manner, held by her
friend who is encouraging her to accept the beetle leaf (an invitation for romance)
offered by Krishna. Having gifted Radha, a bunch of fragrant lotuses which can
be seen in her hand, Sri Krishna, adorned regally inches closer to her, gazing
at the moon face of his beloved who still has her neck slightly lower,
unwilling to look at Krishna. Two Sakhis on Krishna’s side holds a beetle leaf
and garland and a peacock feather fan. All the subjects in the painting are
exquisitely painted, with special attention to their elongated eyes, giving the
artwork the distinctive appeal of Kishangarh’s aesthetics.
