Description
One of the finest examples of ingenuity, and exceptionally imaginative, this brilliant brass statue represents Radha and Krishna seated on a swing. Richly costumed and bejeweled Radha and Krishna are in a festive mood that manifests the season of Vasant that the artist has sought to portray also in the form of the tree holding the swing’s ropes – delicate and artistically cast brass chains in this statue. The tree conceived as loaded with fresh leaves and abundant fruits besides a pair of peacocks perching on its top, and a single one, on the pedestal, is the harbinger of Vasant, the season of flowers, fruits and festiveness, when the cuckoo sings, and joyous peacock dances. Not merely the peacocks in readiness to dance and welcome the season of songs and colours even the divine couple, transcending their divinity, betray complete absorption and human beings passionate bearing to celebrate.
