Rare Vintage “Bangshi-Anjali” Radha Krishna Colour Print – Art Framing Co., Gaya Art Press, Calcutta | 10 × 14 Inches
A beautiful vintage Indian devotional colour print titled “Bangshi-Anjali”, depicting Shri Krishna and Radha in an intimate garden setting. Krishna is shown seated beside Radha with his flute in hand, while Radha rests gracefully against a carved pedestal. The surrounding landscape with lush trees, flowering plants, water, classical garden sculpture and a magnificent peacock gives the composition a richly romantic and devotional atmosphere.
The artwork beautifully combines Krishna iconography with an elegant early Indian decorative-art aesthetic. Krishna’s traditional jewellery, yellow dhoti and flute contrast beautifully with Radha’s dark blue saree and delicate veil, while the peacock and garden setting add further symbolic and visual richness.
The original lower margin retains important period publication details:

Published by: Art Framing Co.

These surviving printer and publisher details significantly enhance the historical character of the work and connect it with the rich tradition of early Calcutta devotional and commercial printmaking.
