This painting shows a cherubic Krishna wearing kudumi (top knot) and sarpech (head ornament) with his characteristic peacock feather, seated on a swing being venerated by a group of royal and divine personages. Krishna and his entourage are entertained by musicians and dancers in the foreground. The diminutive figures in the absolute foreground are scenes from Krishna's life in which he is shown crawling, stealing butter and chasing after a cow. Flanking Krishna are other Hindu gods, Brahma (creator), Shiva (destroyer), Surya (sun god), Chandra (moon god) and rishis (sages).
