A red-and-orange headband is tied over the forehead, with a red tilak mark. Garlands of red roses, white flowers and yellow marigolds hang over both shoulders. Its hands hold a trident-like staff at the upper left, a drum or small vessel at the upper right, and the lower hands are in mudra poses. Small figures are carved at the base of the rock, and flower petals lie at the feet. The image is a photograph of a statue, not a living person.
