The artist Narottam Narayan Sharma depicts the flute-playing child-Krishna in an enchanted moonlit landscape. The artwork is signed by the artist lower right, along with the name of his hometown, the Krishna pilgrim center of Nathdwara in Rajasthan. This print is one of the finest to have been printed in Germany on state-of-the-art chromo-lithographic presses in the mid-1930s, on artwork supplied by the Indian publisher S. Bribasi & Sons, of Karachi & Muttra [Mathura]. This print is reputed to be the best selling image in the history of the industry.
