This oil painting is a reverent portrait of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founding acharya of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Recognized as a rasika acharya—one deeply adept at relishing the devotional mellows of bhakti—Srila Prabhupada dedicated his life to spreading the teachings of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu across the globe. From 1965 until his passing in 1977, he circled the earth multiple times, translating ancient Vedic texts and establishing temples on every continent. He proved that Gaudiya Vaishnavism transcends cultural boundaries, presenting it as the eternal dharma of the soul. This portrait was specially commissioned for the Govindaji Gardens ashram in South India and honors the profound legacy of a true spiritual visionary.
