One of the most well-known and captivating representations of the dark-skinned lord in Hinduism is "Venugopala," in which Krishna appears as the pala (protector) of Go (cows and cattle), playing enchanting songs on his flute known as "Venu". The artist has gloriously embellished Krishna in this wooden Venugopala murti, who adopts his recognizable "Tribhanga" (triple bending) pose. This form of Sri Krishna is a heavenly four-armed (Chaturbhuja) aspect of Venugopala. This representation of Sri Krishna in art is the idea of Krishna as the Universal Cowherd God, leading the innumerable masses of living beings through the ocean of existence (Bhava Sagara), with the tunes of his Venu acting as the guiding strings to the souls.
