Close photograph of a gold-leafed statue with long hair falling to the shoulders, eyes lifted upward, seated within an ornately carved gilded arch. A bare hand with a gold bangle on the wrist is raised with fingers spread, touching or hovering just above the statue's forehead. The statue is a sculpted image, not a living person, and the hand is the only physical person visible.
