Pichwai is a centuries-old Indian art form, originating over 400 years ago in the temple town of Nathdwara, Rajasthan. Traditionally, these intricate paintings were created to adorn the walls of Shrinathji temples, illustrating various incidents and festivals from Lord Krishna’s life.
The term Pichwai comes from combining "pichh" (back) and "wai" (cloth hanging), reflecting how these paintings were historically displayed—hung behind Shrinathji’s idol in temples. Over time, their exquisite craftsmanship and spiritual significance have gained admiration from art collectors worldwide, making them sought-after for personal and commercial collections.
This particular painting portrays Shrinathji with the Gopis, symbolizing devotion and divine love.
