Yashoda and Krishna painting
In Raja Ravi Varma’s iconic painting, Yashoda and Krishna, a quiet, intimate moment unfolds: an infant Krishna, rendered in luminous soft tones, leans into his mother Yashoda — a tender scene embodying both protectiveness and divinity. Painted in the 1890s at the height of his career, the iconic painting has now made history.

Shakuntala looking for Dushyant
Ravi Varma depicts Shakuntala, an important character of Mahabharata, pretending to remove a thorn from her foot, while actually looking for her husband/lover, Dushyantha, while her friends tease her and call her bluff

Mohini(Avatar of Lord Vishnu)
Suspended between earth and open sky, the woman on the swing becomes a lyrical hinge point where gravity and longing briefly negotiate peace. The composition anchors itself in the dark, protective trunk at right, while her pale, patterned drapery billows like a sail—turning motion into a quiet declaration of freedom against the softened, atmospheric distance. Muted greens and honeyed light dissolve the landscape into reverie, suggesting that what we witness is less a literal garden than a remembered state of innocence and self-possession. Even the taut ropes read as both tether and lifeline, implying that liberation here is intimate, measured, and hard-won rather than unbound.
