Krishna Watches a Juggler, from a copy of the Seven Hundred Verses (Sat Sai) of Bihari, c. 1750/90
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this vibrant and captivating artwork, we are transported to the enchanting world of ancient India. The painting depicts Krishna, a beloved deity in Hinduism, observing with delight as a skilled juggler performs his mesmerizing act. Created by an unknown artist during the 18th century in Mewar, Rajasthan, this masterpiece showcases the rich heritage and artistic prowess of Indian culture. The scene unfolds within the opulent confines of a palace adorned with intricate architecture and calligraphy. The colors burst forth in vivid hues - oranges and golds dominate the palette, evoking warmth and energy. As Krishna watches intently from atop a flight of steps, women dressed in colorful attire surround him. This artwork not only captures an entertaining moment but also reflects deeper themes found within Indian literature and poetry. It is believed to be inspired by Bihari Lal Chaube's "Seven Hundred Verses" known as Sat Sai in Hindi. Through its portrayal of juggling as an art form that captivates both gods and mortals alike, it symbolizes the power of entertainment to transcend boundaries. Preserved at the Art Institute Chicago's Asian Art collection, this print serves as a window into centuries-old traditions that continue to shape contemporary Indian society today. Its beauty lies not only in its visual appeal but also in its ability to transport us
