Always shown with his left arm raised, Shrinathji is a representation of Krishna inspired by an event from the deity's childhood. When a violent storm was sent to destroy his village, Krishna lifted Mount Govardhana and held it like an umbrella to provide shelter and protection. The painting depicts Shrinathji’s haveli, or mansion, from varied perspectives including an aerial view. With an image of Shrinathji in the upper left, it was created as a reminder of the miraculous deeds of Krishna.
