A large dark stone statue of a deity murti stands outdoors beneath a leafy tree, draped in orange cloth with a green-and-gold border and wearing an orange-and-gold turban-style headpiece. It is garlanded with long strands of yellow marigolds, red roses and white jasmine, and wears a rudraksha mala. The raised right hand holds a flame-like object, while the left hand rests near the chest. The pedestal shows carved relief figures, including a seated meditating figure and a standing yogic figure. A silver-toned arch frames the statue behind it. At the left edge, a person in white clothing stands near a second person in white who kneels beside the base, possibly making an offering.
