This graceful sculpture of Krishna is hand-carved from fragrant sandalwood — a material that has been valued in India for centuries for its fine quality and pleasant scent. Krishna, the Hindu deity of love and divine playfulness, is depicted here in an elegant posture. The sculpture dates from the first half of the 20th century and shows slight wear consistent with its age; the flute is missing. A sought-after object for collectors of Indian art and spiritual artifacts.
