Under a flowering and fragrant Kadamba vriksha (tree), near which the divine stream Yamuna makes heavenly music, Krishna and Radha meet. Aatma and Paramatma and the eternal devotion of each toward the other are visualized in this exquisite large wooden statue, depicting a unique scene of the romantic togetherness of the divine duo. Three feet in height and marvelously detailed, this wooden Radha Krishna will transform any space into the abode of divinity.
The tree, carved realistically, provides shade to the youthful duo, who stand in the most appealing postures under it. Brimming with a delicate beauty, at the prime of their youth, Radha and Krishna display heart-warming proximity and a lovely allure that is enhanced by their beautifully smiling countenance, lyrically flowing garments, and lithesome poses.
The attire of Sri Krishna is in keeping with the style of royal kings, while Radha Rani is dressed in an ethnic manner, wearing the traditional lehenga-choli worn by the women of rural India. Adding to this imagery of affection, devotion, and divinity, Gau mata (cow) stands next to Sri Krishna, looking lovingly at the couple, mirroring the charmed emotion of the onlooker, who will undoubtedly be mesmerized in the company of this artistic marvel.
How to care for Wood Statues?
Wood is extensively used in sculpting especially in countries like China, Germany, and Japan. One feature that makes the wood extremely suitable for making statues and sculptures is that it is light and can take very fine detail. It is easier for artists to work with wood than with other materials such as metal or stone. Both hardwoods, as well as softwood, are used for making sculptures. Wood is mainly used for indoor sculptures because it is not as durable as stone. Changes in weather cause wooden sculptures to split or be attacked by insects or fungus. The principal woods for making sculptures and statues are cedar, pine, walnut, oak, and mahogany. The most common technique that sculptors use to make sculptures out of wood is carving with a chisel and a mallet. Since wooden statues are prone to damage, fire, and rot, they require proper care and maintenance.
It is extremely important to preserve and protect wooden sculptures with proper care. A little carelessness and negligence can lead to their decay, resulting in losing all their beauty and strength. Therefore, a regular clean-up of the sculptures is a must to prolong their age and to maintain their shine and luster.
