A night procession image of an ornate golden ratha-style shrine framed by gilded carved arches and makara-like finials. Inside the shrine stands a life-size figure of a standing deity murti with a saffron-orange turban, adorned with a multicoloured jewelled necklace and a golden body ornament, the hands raised in blessing. The niche is decorated with red and white flower garlands and green leafy foliage, with a red cloth backdrop. Below, a golden base draped with an orange-gold silk cloth holds two small lit lamps on stands. The background is dark. No physical people are visible. The figure is a statue, so the a person field is depiction only if an appearance-based candidate is present; here it is a murti, so none.
