A small gold-painted statue of a seated sage in a tan and white cloth headwrap and a blue-grey shawl, with dark beaded malas draped over the shoulders, sits on a gold brocade cushion. A red hibiscus flower lies in front of it, and a lit tealight candle in a frosted glass holder stands in the foreground. Behind the statue are a red panel, a small dark metal Nataraja figure, white flowers and green stalks in a vase, and a purple cloth. This is a photograph of a statue, not of a living person, so no physical people are present and the figure is not an in-person candidate.
