A standing man in a red turban and red shawl over an orange and green striped dhoti-style garment, bare-chested with gold armlets and bangles, smiles and raises one hand in a greeting gesture beside a large golden-framed multi-armed deity murti. The murti wears a crown, rich jewelled necklaces, garlands of red, yellow and white flowers, and holds weapons including a trident in its many arms, seated on a tiered golden base on a wheeled golden platform. Behind them a large printed banner shows a golden crowned figure, and a dark curtain hangs in the background. The man's appearance does not clearly establish his identity, so no identification is made.
