A decorated utsava murti seated in a meditative posture, with a golden face, black hair, a red tilak, and an ornate red-and-gold crown. The figure wears layered silver and jeweled necklaces set with red and green stones, a rudraksha-style mala, and a brown-red garment with a magenta satin cloth draped beneath. Silver hands are raised in abhaya and resting gestures. Behind the figure is a large arch of marigold and chrysanthemum garlands in yellow, red, purple, and white, typical of an alankar for a festival procession. This is a statue, not a living person.
