The figure wears a green velvet garment, a jewelled necklace, large ornate earrings and a green-and-gold turban, and holds a spear-like staff. It is framed by red rose and white jasmine garlands. In front stands a golden horse-headed vahana with a green-and-gold cloth draped over it. A red-and-gold embroidered textile hangs at the right edge.
