Three metallic-gold statues seated side by side on a shimmering gold backdrop beneath a white draped cloth. The central figure wears an elaborate jewelled crown with red, green and gold ornaments, a long pearl and gold garland, and a white dhoti with embroidered red and gold border, seated on a red-and-gold textile throne. The statue on the left wears a saffron-orange turban, a rust-coloured shawl and a bead necklace, while the statue on the right wears a tall jewelled headdress, multiple garlands and a yellow-gold shawl. All three have raised hands in blessing poses. These are statues, not living people.
