My first attempt at Tanjore Painting.
Mother Yashoda embracing Lord Krishna. Mythology has it that, as a child, Lord Krishna had great love for her foster mother Yashoda. This painting symbolises the traditional richness prevelant in the Dwapara Yuga.
A very well done piece. I’m not that familiar with Tanjore, but I love the use of color and the metal.
take care
what a COOL piece….gorgeous colors
Thanks Richard & Margaret.
