Lord Krishna & Devotees by Kishor Gayen

Description

A broad tree spreads across the top of Kishor Gayen’s Lord Krishna & Devotees, and beneath it the devotees gather around Krishna in a band of figures. Gayen paints in the Paitkar way. His figures are drawn in profile with long eyes and bold outlines, and the scene is laid out so it can be read as a story. Warm yellows and oranges fill the upper half and set a glowing mood above the gathering. The tree shelters the whole group, a reminder of the groves where Krishna’s stories unfold.
