Description

• Deities: The central figures are Lord Krishna, typically shown with a flute, and his beloved Radha, who together symbolize the ultimate union of the masculine and feminine divine principles and the soul’s seeking of divine love.
• The Deer: The inclusion of a deer holds several symbolic meanings in Hindu iconography:
• • Mastery Over the Mind: The deer’s quick and sometimes erratic movements are often compared to the restless nature of the human mind. Shiva, who is also sometimes depicted holding a deer, symbolizes mastery and control over one’s own mind and its wandering thoughts.
  • Purity and Gentleness: The deer also symbolizes grace, purity, and gentleness.
  • Vedic Knowledge: In some traditions, the four legs of the deer are said to represent the four Vedas, indicating the deity’s status as the master of Vedic knowledge.
• Material: The wall hanging is made from terracotta (fired clay) and features a multicolor palette with a rustic finish.
