An Indian Pichwai Painting of Three Sacred Cows, 20th Century.
An Indian Pichwai painting depicting three sacred white cows arranged in a graceful ascending alignment. Each cow is adorned with a red ceremonial headpiece and stylised black-and-gold horns, their gentle expressions capturing the serene devotional spirit associated with Nathdwara temple art. The luminous green background, framed with a painted black border, enhances the sacred presence of the trio. Red kumkum handprints—auspicious symbols commonly found in Pichwai works—decorate the bodies of the cows, signifying blessings, protection, and reverence for these holy animals.
