A large, unfinished Ganesha figure stands indoors in a workshop with an orange cloth backdrop and a yellow marigold garland around its neck. The figure has a black body, an elephant head with a grey trunk and tusks, and holds a wooden and blue object in one hand. Sacks, metal rods and a metal tray lie around the floor, and a corrugated roof overhead. No living person is visible; the figure is a statue, not a physical person.
