Description
According to the name, this relief in wood is presumably a representation of Krishna, the Hindu deity, the god of love, tenderness and compassion. While the sculpture does not show the usual depiction of the god of love - with a flute and heavily accessorised - the oriental pattern on one side could support the assumption, with the woman representing the spirit of the deity.
