Bring home a stunning visual of the Krishna Mandap from Mahabalipuram – one of the oldest cave temples and a rare narrative treasure from Indian mythology. This wooden souvenir captures the entire stretch of the temple’s intricate rock-cut panel, beautifully illustrating the story of Lord Krishna lifting the Govardhan Hill.
While the actual site is difficult to capture in a single frame due to its architectural layout with central pillars, this artwork stands apart — it was created live on-site by artist J. Prabhakar, who carefully illustrated the entire scene as a continuous, uninterrupted panorama.
From Krishna holding the hill, to the villagers, cows, and natural elements — this piece reflects not just mythology, but the vibrancy of rural life from centuries ago, sculpted during the Pallava dynasty era (7th century CE).
Printed directly onto a real wooden base, this collectible is lightweight yet enduring, ideal for desks, shelves, and walls.
