The subject is a portrait of Krishna in a purple turban decorated with a peacock feather and a pink lotus, a combination that carries a great deal of devotional meaning. He wears a necklace of large pearls and garlands of flowers, and a softly glowing evening sky forms the background. The face is calm and direct, with dark eyes that seem to look out at the viewer. The rich purples, blues and golds are reproduced well in print, and the result is a picture that looks close to a fine-art painting when seen from a normal viewing distance. The dark frame sets off the colours nicely.

A portrait of Krishna with a peacock feather and a lotus draws on some of the most recognisable symbols of his devotion: the feather for beauty and the lotus for purity. The larger 24 x 30 inch size gives the face real presence on a living-room or office wall. As a printed canvas, it offers this presence at a much lower cost than a hand-painted equivalent.
