A dark stone or black-painted statue of a seated saint-like figure is adorned for a festival. The figure wears an orange-brown saffron-toned robe, a deep orange-red turban with a jewelled ornament, multiple strands of gold and wooden-bead necklaces, and a gold pendant. Its raised gold-plated hands hold a long wooden staff, and the entire figure is framed by dense garlands of marigolds, red roses, white jasmine and green leaves. A golden ornate arm band and armour-like shoulder pieces adorn the statue. This is a statue, not a living person, so no physical people are present. Canopy fabric in red is visible at the top.
