A seated figure is adorned for worship, framed by thick red rose garlands and rudraksha malas. A golden cobra hood with jeweled pendants rises behind the head, and an orange-gold turban or cloth sits atop it with green leaves tucked in. Green silk with pink and blue embroidered flowers drapes the body, and a brass oil lamp stands in the right foreground. The figure is a deity murti or decorated statue rather than a visible living person, so no in_person candidate is present; the page's claim cannot be confirmed from appearance.
