Krishna in the Garden of Assam - T. Richard Blurton - Bog

- The history and context of a much-travelled textile

Bag om Krishna in the Garden of Assam

This beautiful and rare textile, now in the British Museum, was produced in the late seventeenth century in the wake of the remarkable outflow of Krishna veneration resulting from the ministry of the great eastern Indian saint, Sankaradava (died 1568). The author looks at the art, technique and iconography of the textile and also place it within its wider religious, cultural and geographical contexts.
