A dark stone statue of a multi-armed deity stands in an outdoor garden setting under green trees, framed by a carved white arch with a golden-brown fabric backdrop.

Several arms hold ritual objects, and the figure sits on a dark pedestal with a red floral offering at its base. Sandy ground, potted plants and a small red stand lie in the foreground. The image shows a statue, not a living person.
