Description
this relief resembles altars on mountain shrines in Java. These altars may have had a ritual function as a back to a seat for the gods. The relief depicts Krishna, accompanies by Satybhama, acquiring the magic wish-fulfilling tree, Parijata. This legend from a popular Javanese court poem was preserved in later periods through performances of wayand purwa shadow puppet theatre.
