The figure wears a heavy gold necklace set with stones, a jewelled crown, a golden dhoti and a sash, and is draped in a long garland of yellow marigolds. It sits before an ornate silver arch carved with floral motifs, against a red-orange backdrop. Brass multi-tiered oil lamps (deepa stands) flank both sides, and strings of white and blue fairy lights are wound around the arch and the lamps. No physical people are visible.
