Krishna playing the flute is a 1820 paint by Unknown, a Mughal Painting work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a blue-skinned man standing on a green hillside. He plays a flute with closed eyes, surrounded by cows and two women. The sky is soft pink and blue. The artist painted Krishna with a calm, dreamy look. The cows seem to listen. The women hold vases and wear bright saris. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see it in person.
