A golden statue of a figure in a white turban and white draped garment, with long dark hair falling behind, stands against a backdrop densely covered with yellow, white, pink and purple flower garlands. The statue raises its right hand in a blessing gesture, wearing a jewelled armlet and gold bangles, and is adorned with layered necklaces of gold, red stones, green beads and white stones, plus a large pendant. This is a statue, not a living person, and the sanctity suggested by the garlanded setting is only visible through the statue's ornamentation.
