This dynamic painting illustrates the dramatic moment from the Srimad Bhagavatam when the demon Aristasura, sent by the tyrant King Kamsa, storms into the sacred village of Vrindavan. Disguised as a monstrous bull, Aristasura tramples the earth with his powerful hooves, striking fear into the hearts of the villagers. The terrified gopis, seeking refuge, flee toward the Tamala trees—mistaking their dark blue trunks for the comforting presence of Krishna. This powerful scene captures the intense emotional devotion of Krishna’s devotees and highlights his divine role as the protector of Vrindavan.
