Shri Nathji in a pink pavilion
Nathdwara, mid- to late 19th century
The painting depicts a celebration taking place in the Shri Nathji temple of Nathdwara, Rajasthan. Shri Nathji, the most important icon of the Vallabha Sampradaya, is a black marble sculpture that represents Krishna as a child with the left arm raised in the stance of keeping mount Govardhan aloft. The icon wears a four-pointed full-length coat in saffron color with silver trimming and it is placed in a raised pavilion covered with pink roses. The liturgy, performed by the priest on the left, was probably sponsored by the family of devotees standing on the right. Provenance: Venetian private collection.
