Reverted 3 edits by ShresthaShome.Ullas (talk): No reasonable explanation for the need for deletion. Wikipedia is not censored and not a place for favoritism. You may still use AfD, however "I dont like it" might end in a WP:SNOW closure |
Wikipedia IS a place for neutrality as it claims. Wikipedia, if used for communal bullshit of garb of FOE, it must be held accountable. Read about 'Paradox of tolerance'. In this case, wikipedian admins are using tolerance to force their hateful content/propaganda. WP:THEYDONTLIKEIT specifically talks about this kind of situation where admins try censorship argument to avoid discussion on proper content vs racism/hate like this article. WP:SNOW should apply on you then. |

Krishna and Radha in a Pavilion is an 18th-century Indian painting depicting the two Hindu deities Krishna and Radha.
Description
The painting is the example of Pahari painting used in Gardner's Art Through the Ages:[1]
"In Krishna and Radha in a Pavilion, the lovers sit on a bed beneath a jeweled pavilion in a lush garden of ripe mangoes and flowering shrubs. Krishna gazes directly into Radha's face. Radha shyly averts her gaze. It is night, the time of trysts, and the dark monsoon sky momentarily lights up with a lightning flash indicating the moment's electric passion. Lightning is a standard symbol used in Rajput and Pahari miniatures to symbolize spiritual bliss and excitement."
