She regularly goes to the river nearby in order to fetch some water. She dresses up, looking no less than the celestial nymphs whose beauty attracts even gods. While filling her pot, she sees her reflection in the water. Amused and prided by her beauty, she plucks a lotus flower from the river, it is her gift to herself. Immersed in her thoughts, as she starts walking back home, a thorn, piercing in her lotus-like foot, brings her journey to a halt. The artist, whose imagination was the canvas of all these events, found the perfect moment for the brass statue.
The youthful beauty, devoid of any excess drapery and tastefully ornamented is caught in the process of plucking the thorn from her foot. She has a delightfully pretty face, made even more charming by her hairdo- all her hair tied in a pleasant side bun. The thorn in her right hand, her raised right foot, the slight tilt of her head- all these elements have added a sense of movement to this brass work. The platform for the lady is equally artistic. With incised lines on the first tier and skilled treatment of the lotus flower in the second, the platform alone speaks volumes about the richness of the artistic value of this brass.
