Summary
| Description |
English: "A Pichhavai of the Vraj Parikrama Jatra. India, Rajasthan, 19th Century. The central orange panel illustrating Krishna as Shrinathji with upraised arm surrounded by a snaking river and villages relating scenes from Krishna's childhood. 65¾ x 47 in. (168 x 120 cm.).
Lot Notes: This unusual pichhavai is in actuality a topographical depiction of Vrindavan and its surrounding villages on the banks of the Yamuna River. The Jatra is a pilgrimage route that courses through the region encompassing chaurasi (84) kos, the equivalent of 168 miles. It is undertaken in a clockwise manner that passes through 12 vanas (forests), 24 upvanas (groves), and Mount Govardhana in a practice that is still observed by pilgrims today." |
