It could be a kadamba tree, found aplenty in Vrindavan and, consequently, in stories of Krishnaleela; or it could be a generic depiction of the tree of life. Sculpted from bronze, it is a tall, moderately flat composition of a dense-canopied tree.
The density of the canopy has been conveyed through solid, clunky raised work. WIthin the same is embossed the timeless image of Radha and Krishna. It is complex craftsmanship in terms of sheer detail and expression - He plays the flute, while She leans against His shoulder.
The ends of Krishna’s angavastram and Radha’s ordhni (traditional Indian scarf) cascade down in a single file all the way to the square-shaped base, an interesting visual formation of the trunk of the kadamba tree.
