A black stone murti seated in a silver arched niche before a red cloth backdrop, surrounded by trees. The figure wears an orange saffron shawl over the body, an orange headwrap, and multiple rudraksha mala strands across the chest with a pendant. Garlands of yellow and red flowers hang from the arms, and a few flower petals lie at the base. The figure holds ritual objects in its upper hands, with its lower hands in a meditative mudra. This is a sculpted deity murti, not a living person, and the scene is an outdoor shrine.
