Story of Bal Krishna (Bal-Lila)
Bal Krishna’s childhood is filled with divine playfulness—stealing butter (maakhan-chor), dancing on the serpent Kaliya (Kaliya-daman), playing the flute, and enchanting everyone with his innocence. This artwork captures his early spiritual aura, symbolizing love, joy, and protection. Bal Krishna represents divine childhood, fearlessness, and mischief touched with divinity.
Importance of Elephant in Mithila Tradition
Although not in this specific painting, the elephant is a major symbol in Mithila art—representing prosperity, dignity, strength, and auspicious beginnings. Elephants are often painted during festivals, weddings, and rituals as carriers of good luck and divine blessings.
