The scene depicted in this relief transports us back in time to witness an important moment in Buddhist history.

Surrounding them are attendants and maidens adorned with delicate lotus flowers symbolizing purity and enlightenment. Every detail on this stone sculpture speaks volumes about the religious significance it holds. The artist's craftsmanship is evident through their meticulous portrayal of each character's expressions and attire. From the serene face of Queen Maya to the gentle touch of her attendant holding a baby cradle, every element exudes grace and devotion.
