Description
English: "Part of an album of seventy paintings of Indian deities. Arjuna, dressed in courtly costume with a quiver slung over his shoulder and sword and buckler at his side, folds his hands in anjali mudra and kneels before his charioteer, Kṛṣṇa. The god sits holding the horses’ bridles, with his right hand raised in the teaching gesture, jnana mudra. Their conveyance is drawn by four horses, and its roof is surmounted by a chhattra. At its sides are two flags – one with the standard bearing Arjuna’s emblem, the Hanuman flag, and the other with images of the sun and moon"
