Yamuna 2 (Nathdwara)
Painting on paper
20 x 13.7" / 50.5 x 35 cms
>
Part of the जल देवी (Water Goddess) Curation as part of The Monsoon Festival 16
>
Yamuna, imaged in the very specific iconography that the Nathdwara school developed for portraying Yamuna ji, sacred to the Pushti-marg as part of the trinity of Shrinathji, Yamuna and Vallabh Mahaprabhu. Yamuna ji typically looks sideways, holding a garland towards Shrinathji (highlighting the aspect of using images as a backdrop / side panel, typical of the Pichvai tradition). She wears a long lotus garland, and holds lotus flowers in her other hand. Both the paintings featured here, Yamuna 1 and Yamuna 2, executed in the Bazaar style.
>
