Photograph of a pickup truck tailgate loaded with stacked brown paper food hampers bound with blue string and printed with Persad's labels. Seated atop the bags is a life-size cutout or statue of a smiling figure in an orange-red turban and matching orange-red robe, wearing a multi-strand orange-red flower garland and a thick rudraksha-style mala, with raised palms. A white tray on the tailgate holds brass lamps, a small bell, a conch-shaped vessel, and incense on a pink cloth. The scene is under a covered carport. The figure is a depiction rather than a living person, and the visible people count is zero.
