Its base carries a painted or sculpted horse, and standing figures in green-lit costume decorate the platform. A tractor driver in a white shirt and white head covering sits at the wheel, while a few people in white dhotis walk near the vehicle. Parked vehicles and a white van are visible in the background under a dark sky.
