Shilpashastra (iconography)
Source: Shodhganga: Elements of Art and Architecture in the Trtiyakhanda of the Visnudharmottarapurana (shilpa)Honey Bees is associated with the Spring season, which follows specific guidelines of ancient Indian Painting (citra), according to the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, an ancient Sanskrit text which (being encyclopedic in nature) deals with a variety of cultural topics such as arts, architecture, music, grammar and astronomy.—In the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa, the rules of Painting of different classes have been elaborately discussed. The picture of Vasanta i.e., the spring season should contain the trees which bloom in this season particularly the cuckoo, honey bees and joyful men and women. Thus the picture reciprocates the natural actions that generally happen in life. [...] Thus, the Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa addresses various elements of nature, such as honey bees, since painting has much connection with time, mood and activity.
