Garlands of yellow, red, white and purple flowers with green leaves drape the statue on both sides, and its feet rest on a brass base over a striped tiger-skin mat. Gold brocade covers the platform and red drapery backs the shrine. The statue is a depiction, not a person.2017-11-25 +1 copiesNovember 24 20172017-11-24A bronze-coloured statue of a standing male figure, shown as a murti rather than a living person, wears a brown turban with a jeweled ornament, a brown draped garment and an elaborate silver-and-gold multi-strand necklace set with red and white stones.

The figure is framed by yellow marigold and red rose garlands with green leaves, set before an ornate gold arched frame with floral and peacock motifs, against a deep red curtain and a pink-and-gold embroidered cloth at the base.
