A photograph inside a museum room with wooden display cabinets lit from within, holding small figurines and deity sculptures on glass shelves. In the foreground, a bald man in a yellow shawl stands with his back to the camera, facing the cabinets. Beside him, a figure in a bright orange turban and orange wrap with long dark hair stands looking at the displays, with a Ganesha bronze in the lower foreground. A red and white sign reads 'DO NOT TOUCH THE EX...' and a small Ganesha sculpture label is visible. Two people are visible in the scene, and the figure in orange is a candidate, though his identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
