A gilded metal murti of a deity stands in front of a large garland arch of marigolds in orange, yellow and red with green and white flower strands. The figure wears a tall crown with a decorative band, layered jewelled necklaces with red and green stones, and a deep maroon and gold garment. It holds a trident-like staff in one hand and a raised hand gesture in the other, while a dark curtain and white carved pillar appear behind. The setting suggests a temple or ashram shrine display.
