About the piece
Originating from Bikaner, Rajasthan, around 1600, this painting illustrates the 'Dana-Lila' episode from the Bhagavata Purana. The work features the characteristic bold palette of the Bikaner school, with Krishna and the gopis (milkmaids) rendered in expressive poses amidst a landscape of stylized flowering trees and a deep yellow ground.
