A black stone statue of a standing male figure in a shrine, with a golden wall behind it. The figure wears a red and green striped turban with a pearl and jewel ornament at the front, a red dot on the forehead, layered pearl and gemstone necklaces with green stones, and a red dhoti with a gold border. A gold-brocaded shawl drapes over both arms. The right hand is raised in abhaya mudra, palm outward with a red dot, and yellow flowers lie at the feet on a black pedestal. The pedestal bears a red sign reading KAILASA THANJAVUR. The image is a photograph with a timestamp overlay of Dec 6, 2024 6:30:45 AM, Karanthai, Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu. No people are visible; the figure is a statue, so a person does not appear as an in-person presence.
