Standing on a lotus pedestal, surrounded by a splendid Kirtimukha aura, the woman in this wooden statue is identified as a Nair Lady from Kerala by her unique and elaborate hairdo. In the sacred realm of Hindu temples, her presence can be explained in several ways. She can be seen as a symbol of devotion, which she offers to the divine through the flower in her hand. She is also seen as the manifestation of the divine and fertile virtues of woman, highlighted by her accentuated womb and bosoms, which are symbols of maternal virtues and a universally sacred element in art.
