The slim and sleek figure of Lord Krishna, as being perceived in the tribal society is given a detail and beautiful treatment. The lord is playing his flute. Lord Krishna is an incarnation of Lord Vishnu in Hindu pantheon and he also occupies a place of tremendous importance in Bastar region as well. Local customs and treatment is manifest in the figure. Dhokra is a very old crafting tradition and this art is mainly associated with the tribal groups of northern India. Myriad images are cast in the dhokra tradition as people try to preserve their pristine culture, custom and belief through the wondrous pieces they create.
