Description |
English: Page from a manuscript of the Bālagopālastuti attributed to Bilvamaṅgala. On the recto, three vertical red margins divide the leaf in two unequal portions. A painting on the left in opaque watercolour shows Kṛṣṇa in his four-armed divine form (Nārāyaṇa) dancing. Two cowgirls prepare and bring him butter while two others and a cowherd also prepare offerings and worship him. On the right 7 lines of Sanskrit text in black ink including two sections numbered 108 and 109, the latter being a colophon with title and authorship. On the verso 7 lines of text (vv. 110-112) across the width of the page, which is numbered 21. On paper. |

Licensing
editThis image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. ![]() |
