There is no aspect of life, culture and civilization which is not influenced by Krishna theme and thoughts, be it Indian philosophy and religion, mysticism and poetry, painting and sculpture, music and dance.
Every aspect of Krishna’s life with deep mystical symbol indicates the highest Truth.
Krishna in blue form clothed in yellow suggests Pure Infinite Consciousness on earth in The Finite form since blue is the colour associated with infinitude and yellow as the colour of earth .
Lord Krishna is identified with flute which is an inert insentient piece of matter but when played by lord emanates divine music. Like wise this human body is, by itself, inert and insentient Through the five sense organs and mind-and-intellect the consciousness expresses itself and brings out divine harmony and peace both within and without, which in itself is melody and music of life.
In this painting since Krishna is standing in a pose so as bending his body at three places hence he is called " Tribhangi Lal ".
