Now, some breathtaking Indian (mainly Rajput) miniature painting on Krishnalila  or Krishnagatha....!!
Miniature painting in India had begun to take shape long back in 6-7th century AD. The artists brought out their imaginations on paper, ivory panels, wooden tables, leather, marbles, cloths and walls.Here enjoy the beauty of some masterful hand painted miniature painting of Sri Khishna....some of them on hand carved faux ivory, studded with semi-precious stones and faux pearls....!!
