A golden statue of a sadhu-like figure stands before a carved golden panel, draped in thick garlands of yellow marigolds, red roses, white jasmine and green leaves. The figure wears a dark, tall turban with red beads, a red tilak mark, layered gold necklaces, rudraksha malas, and a leopard-print shawl over a reddish-brown garment. Its hands are raised in blessing and gesture. Stone pillars and ornate gold relief frame the scene. The image is a photograph of a statue, so no physical people are present. The statue is a depiction, and appearance-based identification is not established from the statue alone.
