A small ornamental figure of a bearded man wearing an orange-red turban with a tilak mark, set among green leaves and dried purple flowers. Two gold Ganesha figurines flank the arrangement on either side, with a gold plate or tray behind. The figure is a statue or doll, not a physical person, so no in-person candidate is present. The setting appears to be a Diwali-style display of flowers and decorative idols.
