Detailed Solution

The image of God Krishna was most commonly used to popularise baby products in India by the Europeans. When the Manchester companies started distributing clothes in India, their products had labels. Along with words and texts, images were used in these labels. Images that were familiar to the Indian customers were used to appeal to the crowd. Images of popular Indian gods and goddesses were used for the purpose of associating the products with divine approval. The most common images printed were that of Krishna and Saraswati. Clothes were not the only products that were adorned with images of gods and goddesses. Other products like calendars, magazines, baby products etc., also had images of gods and goddesses on them.
