In the Bhakti poetry of Bengal and Orissa, devotees often refer to the dark-skinned Krishna as a bumblebee- radiant and lovely to behold, who drinks on the nectar of Gopis' beauty. This fluting Krishna black stone statue from Mahabalipuram perfectly represents the brilliance of Shyam (the dark-skinned one), who is enchantingly standing in the Tribhanga, adorned with ornaments and his Morapankh-decorated Pagdi.
The attributes of Krishna and the secondary elements such as his sash, fringes of his attire, and decorative motifs are beautifully delineated, enhancing the god's glorious roopa. Sculpted in a rounded manner, this Krishna statue bewitches the heart, as an aid memoir to the Lilas of the youthful beloved of Brija's milkmaidens.
