Krishna's picture is depicted in so many styles; in fact Lord Krishna has probably been the subject of the most numerous masterpieces of art. Sometimes he is shown as a child eating butter-cake, at others he is seen dancing with maidens or playing on flute or advising Arjuna in the battlefield of KURUKSHETRA.

Krishna was born in the Yadava clan, a brave and virile people. He was the eighth incarnation of Vishnu and he descended to the earth in the third stage of Brahma's KALPA the DWAPARA YUGA.
Krishna, the god who delivered the message of Gita to Arjuna, is worshipped in thousands of temples throughout India. As a lovable child, as a shrewd diplomat, as a great sage and even as a fearless man of action, Krishna's personality has fascinated for ages not only Indians but also thinkers of other lands.
