Description

The Hindu deity Krishna depicted in his tribhanga (three-bend) posture. The young god stands gracefully with one leg raised, his right hand poised in a mudra, and his left extended outward, likely once holding a flute. The figure is adorned with detailed ornaments, a sacred thread, and a tiered headdress. The statue rests atop an ornate square base with diamond motifs and lotus petal detailing.
