Yashoda And Bala Krishna: Divine Motherly Love

This elegant brass sculpture captures the joyful bond between Baby Krishna (Bala Krishna) and his mother, Yashoda. Yashoda stands gracefully on a double lotus base, lifting her young son above her head with a look of pride and affection. Baby Krishna, held securely by his mother, is depicted playing the flute, embodying his divine charm and playfulness even as a child.

In Hindu culture, the relationship between Krishna and Yashoda represents the pure and selfless love between mother and child. Yashoda is revered for her unwavering devotion and care for Krishna, unaware of his divine nature yet showering him with unconditional love. This scene embodies the joy, innocence, and divinity of Krishna’s early years in Vrindavan, a theme celebrated in Indian art and mythology.
