The beautiful image of the child Krishna dancing over the head of the serpent king Kaliya is being nicely sculpted out of brass in a most graceful manner. The story of Krishna, and Kaliya the serpent is very well known. Kaliya, a naga (a serpent), was living in Yamuna and its banks and had poisoned its waters and also dried the forests nearby by the poison airs breathed by it. Once when Krishna’s friends drank water from the river, they fell unconscious. Krishna jumped into the water to kill the serpent. He was coiled around by Kaliya, the serpent king and he lay at the bottom of the river. But realizing his divine powers, Lord Krishna uncoiled himself from the serpent and danced on the head of the serpent and wanted to kill it. But on imploration from the wives of Kaliya, he left it alone and asked them all to leave the shores of Yamuna. So they left and Yamuna and its shored regained their normal form. This feat is termed as Kaliya-Daman. The serpent and its heads are being nicely carved out.
