A black stone statue of a four-armed deity stands against a white wall in daylight. The figure wears a tall cylindrical crown with red circular markings, red bindi-like marks on the forehead and chest, and a white dhoti with a gold, red and green brocade sash and shawl draped over the shoulders. The upper hands hold a trident-like weapon and a small figure or drum, while a lower hand rests on a club or mace with a textured, pot-shaped base. A white sign with a partial camera-prohibition notice is visible at the top edge. A small brass pot sits at the bottom of the frame. This is a deity murti, not a living person.
