專家說明

The artist Bhimraj Parmanand was active in the second half of the nineteenth century and was one of the more popular artists working at the pilgrimage site of Nathdwara. Krishna as Shrinathji holding up the Govardhan mountain, dancing with Radha and the gopis, and celebrating various festivals in different costumes were common themes with artists in Nathdwara. Nathdwara paintings are known for their vibrant palette, in particular the bright reds and the acid greens. The multi-storied buildings and domed balconies in the background are typical of Rajasthani architecture. For other paintings, which may be by the hand of Bhimraj Parmanand, see Christie’s London, 23 April 1981, lots 36 and 38.
Compare the present lot with a picchvai depicting Krishna or Shrinathji playing Holi which sold at Sotheby’s, New York, 19 September 2008, lot 251.
