This traditional miniature painting depicts Shrinathji, a revered form of Lord Krishna worshipped in the Pushtimarg sect of Vaishnavism. Shrinathji is shown adorned with elaborate jewelry, a grand mukut (crown), and richly decorated garments, standing in the classic pose with one arm raised. Behind him, a vibrant indigo backdrop with stylized floral motifs enhances the sanctified atmosphere.
To the side of the deity, a female devotee—possibly a sevika or bhakta—gazes with devotion, embodying the personal and intimate nature of Pushtimarg devotional practice. The figure is enveloped in a patterned green shawl, indicating modesty and reverence.
The composition is framed by deep hues of purple and pink, and the use of bright yellow and white highlights the sanctity and celebratory tone of the image. Despite the painting’s worn condition, its devotional essence and artistic intricacy remain intact, reflecting the Nathdwara school’s emphasis on spiritual expression over naturalism.
Such paintings were often used in private shrines and homes, intended for personal worship and meditation on the divine form of Shrinathji.
