A golden deity murti is shown frontally against a pink and gold draped backdrop. It wears an ornate gold crown set with red and green stones, a gold face, layered gold and jewelled necklaces, and long rudraksha malas. Its raised hands hold a trident and a damaru-like drum, while the other hands are in mudras. Pink and red silk drapes frame the figure, with orange cloth visible at the edges. A statue, not a living person, so no physical people are present.
