Shyam Sundar, the appealing dark-skinned Lord Krishna has been the subject of numerous writers, struggling to encapsulate his beauty in a few hundred pages. The charm of Krishna is considered beyond words, not to be described but to be experienced.
Krishna stands with his charan kamal (lotus-like feet) placed on a lotus platform, which is tinted to give it a realistic appearance. His body gracefully bends thrice, in the Tribhanga posture. In this exquisite brass statue, he is wearing a short, bright yellow coloured dhoti with orange lines depicting its folds. His body above the waist is a work of art, with colourful dots and motifs painted in different colours, which against his black skin look stunning. On his arms, the artist has drawn armlets shaped like peacock feathers, with white dots in place of pearl strings. Partly hidden behind Krishna's left hand holding the flute, on his right chest, is inscribed the name of his Shakti, the most gorgeous of all Brij maidens- Radha.
