A black stone statue of a four-armed deity stands in an arched white stone niche framed by a red curtain, set in a shaded outdoor garden with trees and bare earth. The figure wears an orange saffron cloth, a saffron head wrap, layered beaded necklaces and a white flower garland, with a yellow marigold garland at the base of the plinth. Two hands hold ritual objects, and small offerings lie on the black pedestal. The statue is a deity murti, not a living person, and there are no physical people in the scene.
