A golden statue of a standing male figure with curly hair, bare-chested and wearing a draped yellow-gold cloth at the waist, raises its right hand in an abhaya-style blessing gesture. Its surface is smeared with sandal or abhishekam paste. Behind it stands a deity murti decorated with yellow and magenta marigold garlands, draped in purple silk, with a white cloth and a pink-bordered cloth on the right side of the altar. A brass lamp and offering vessels sit on the stone ledge in front. The statue is the only clearly visible figure, and the image is a photograph taken in a temple setting.
