The association of youthful women with fertility in nature is as old as culture itself. The icons of Shalabhanjika (woman holding branches of trees) sculpted on temple walls and literature of ancient times narrate the rituals of women touching a tree with their leg or hand, causing its sudden fruition, a symbol of the transference of their potencies of fecundity to the plant.
Drawing on this tradition, the bronze statue of a lady with a creeper is an exquisite example of links between femininity and nature. The lady stands in an elegant posture on a lotus pedestal, with one hand placed on her waist and the other wrapped around the blossoming creeper.
Her hair is coiffed in a high-raising bun, with strands of her hair framing her countenance beautifully. Exquisite ornaments adorn her supple form, which nourishes not only the creeper but the heart of the onlooker, with the sweetness of her roopa.
