Description

Sharad Purnima is the first full-moon night (Purnima) of the monsoon, which marks the onset of Autumn (Sharad). The Raas Leela, or the divine dance that Krishna performed with the Gopis (cow herding girls) of Braj which symbolises the divine union and the spiritual love between Krishna and his devotees is said to have taken place on this night. Pichwais that depict Sharad Purnima typically show Shrinathji in the centre, flanked by Gopis or Gopikas on either side. There will also be a full moon above the figures, depicting Purnima. The Shrinathji figure in a Sharad Purnima Pichwai, is typically embellished with jewels and brocade.

Returns

We accept returns within 7 days of delivery if the item reaches you in damaged condition.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Pichwais are best framed with regular or non-reflective glass. Artworks should be displayed away from direct sunlight and breeze. To clean any accumulated dust, use a soft, dry brush or cloth very lightly on the glass surface or the frame. Make sure there is no moisture on the brush or cloth before cleaning the surface. Once a year, remove the artwork from the wall for a couple of days to let the wall breathe and avoid moisture accumulation. Minor discolouration over the years is normal and to be expected.
