I know very little. Still as per my understanding, the woman figure with Lotus, Elephants and prominent door to her womb signify her as the mother of Buddha.
There are the stories from ancient jataka tales where a divine goddess is mentioned as Sri, who is the daughter of king dhritarastra(the gandharva king of eastern direction, one of the chatur maharaja). She was choosen by bodhisattva over kulakanni (later identified as alaxmi in hinduism). Buddha's mother Mayadevi is always shown With child Buddha. It's her common depiction where as Sri, as the bestower of wealth & fortune is shown with lotus & elephant. In early times, she was considered as a yakshini hence as a magical appearance they used to curve her idol with lotus & watery elements whereas Buddha's mother was a human & not shown with something supernatural, in Mayadevi's imegary you will find child buddha always but in Sridevi's imegary it's all different.

Relangi shastri garu Lakshmi Devi tho samanam annadu katha adhi... modhalindhi.... jathakam kalavapoyina pelli chesaarandi... selfish swalabham kosam nenu bagundali ani kadhu...
But Buddhist claims these images are Mahamaya, Buddha's mother.
