This photograph by Isidore Kinsbergen captures a scene from the "Krishnayana" relief at the Candi Panataran temple complex in East Java, Indonesia. Dating back to the 14th century, the relief depicts the final battle of the Hindu epic, where Krishna emerges victorious. This particular section, from the second narrative register on the west side, showcases a detailed and intricate bas-relief carving, illustrating the dynamic action and tension of the climactic battle. The photo, taken in 1867, provides a valuable historical record of this significant Indonesian artwork.
