Popularized by the supple, young maidens of the Sanchi stupa complex, the theme of Shalabhanjika- a woman holding a Shala or branch of a tree is a beautiful vision narration of the shared realms of fertility, beauty, and auspiciousness that exist between women and nature. The image of Shalabhanjika in Indian aesthetics emerged in literature where it is mentioned that trees bloomed or gave fruits when they were gently touched by a woman, symbolizing the transfer of the virtues of fecundity from the woman to the tree. In this magnificent Kattapa stone statue, a divinely beautiful woman playfully holds a flowering creeper, resulting in it blooming hurriedly. The lithesome form of the Shalabhanjika mirrors the grace of the floral vine that surrounds her, creating an image that will elevate any space it inhabits.
