Standing Lakshmi on Lotus Under Floral Arch - Wood Statue

This standing form of Lakshmi presents the goddess in her classical iconography, where balance, abundance, and growth are articulated through a precise visual language.

She stands upon a fully bloomed lotus, the primary symbol of emergence, purity, and self-sustaining prosperity. The pedestal itself is layered, reinforcing the idea of elevation from the material into the refined.

Lakshmi is depicted with four arms, each extending a distinct attribute. The upper hands hold lotuses in full bloom, signifying fertility, renewal, and spiritual unfolding. One lower hand is held in varada gesture, offering grace and abundance, while the other rests in a composed gesture of assurance, stabilising the figure within a calm, frontal symmetry.

Her adornment is elaborate yet controlled. The jewellery follows the contours of the body, while the lower garment spreads outward in rhythmic, fan-like strands, creating a visual flow that echoes the idea of prosperity as something that radiates.

Framing her is a lush aureole of curling foliage populated by birds, suggesting a living, fertile environment that responds to her presence. At the base, makara-like forms anchor the composition, linking the goddess to the generative waters from which life emerges.
