Handmade Pichwai Painting Celebrating Mother Cows

In Pichwai paintings, the cow is often depicted as standing next to Lord Krishna, who is known as the cowherd. The presence of the cow in these paintings represents the abundance and prosperity that comes from a life devoted to Lord Krishna. 

Pichwai is a detailed art form of traditional Indian hand painting originating from Rajasthan. It depicts Lord Krishna's divine persona using vibrant colours, intricate designs, and careful brushwork. These handcrafted artworks are found in temples and homes, retelling Krishna's stories. Artists portray his playful childhood and serene moments with cows and Gopis. This art celebrates spirituality, craftsmanship, and devotion. It may take a talented artist up to several months to paint a detailed Pichwai.
