EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 18th century watercolor on paper depicts Krishna, the Hindu deity, surrounded by the Gopas or cowherds, in a pastoral setting between c1720 and c1730. The scene unfolds in South East Asia, possibly in the Kulu region of Himachal Pradesh, India, with Krishna and the young men engaged in agricultural activities. Krishna, dressed in traditional attire and holding a lotus flower, is shown in a full-length portrait, standing among the group of young men who are looking back at him with reverence and admiration. The lush greenery of the landscape is dotted with trees and flowers, adding to the serene and idyllic atmosphere of the scene. The use of opaque watercolor paints brings out the rich colors and textures of the image, making it a stunning example of 18th century Hindu art from India. This artwork, with its depiction of Krishna and the Gopas, is a testament to the deep-rooted traditions and cultural heritage of Hinduism in India and South East Asia. The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is fortunate to have this masterpiece in its collection, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of this artwork from the past.
