Krishna and his friends sporting in the river

This Indian miniature painting from Bundi in Rajasthan depicts a delightful scene in which Krishna frolics merrily in a pool under a huge banyan tree with his friends. Some of the young women or gopis are clinging to the low hanging branches of the banyan tree, while the gopas are splashing about in the water. This Bundi miniature captures a light hearted moment in the life of Lord Krishna. The theme of this painting is a favorite of many artists. This lovely painting from Rajasthan, India, is a splendid example of the art of miniature painting for which Bundi is famous.
