Small world? Full circle? As a senior at Wheeling Jesuit, in 2000, one morning a professor handed around reproductions of one of Murldhara’s works. You see, the professor had been Murlidhara’s models for the painting. I failed to recognize our instructor, but when the class was challenged to state what was special about the picture, of course, I cited Murlidhara Prabhu. The rest of the class was spent talking about the Palace of Gold and Murlidhara Prabhu. Our teacher praised Murlidhara to High Heaven, and I felt that glow one gets when one is not so nice, but knows for even just a moment that he or she is in with the in crowd.

I know Murlidhara well. He no longer goes by that name but is a most talented classical artist for his time. The style of art he prefers is like that of David during the French Revolution. His talents increased even after the subject matter changed. pusti dd Who are you? I know Murlidhara well. He no longer goes by that name but is a most talented classical artist for his time.
