Her body shudders and trembles. Her passion blossoms With sighs and eyes closing.
-----------------------------------Gitagovinda (circa 12th century)
The Sanskrit classic, Gitagovinda (Songs of Govinda) was written by Jayadeva in the twelfth century AD. Apart from its intrinsic literary merit, which is of an exceptionally high order, the Gitagovinda is of special importance for its path-breaking deification of the love of Radha and Krishna.
Since the ban on ivory, marble has become the preferred medium for many accomplished artists.
