A golden-faced deity murti stands in a temple setting before turquoise satin drapery. The figure wears an orange and red striped turban with a jewelled crown and a jewelled brow ornament, and an orange shawl falls over its shoulder. It is adorned with a rudraksha-bead necklace, red flower garlands and green leaves, and rhinestone-studded armour. In its raised hand it holds a silver trident, a ceremonial mace-like staff, and a jewelled hand-shaped piece. The statue is a sculptural figure, not a living person, so no physical people are present and the a person candidate is depiction only if identified, which the image does not establish.
