A small bronze-toned statue of a smiling woman saint stands within an ornate gilded arched shrine frame with scrolled finials and leaf motifs. The figure wears a cream headcloth with a red tilak, a red-and-gold garland of beads at the neck, and a long draped garment, and is decorated with a heavy white jasmine garland that falls to its base. The shrine sits on a pink and gold brocade cloth, with pink lotus blooms and blurred blue and red decorations behind. The image is a photograph of a statue, so it contains no physical people.

A small statue of a seated figure with a white head covering and a long white flower garland is set on an ornate gold throne-like peetha with leaf-shaped finials and a small gold umbrella above. The figure wears a red and gold garment and has a red tilak on the forehead. Behind it are red and blue draped fabrics, pink lotus flowers and a gold-framed backdrop. The figure is a statue, not a living person, so it is not counted as a physical person and a person is depiction only if a person candidate is established; here the figure is a statue with a white head covering rather than the long hair and saffron cues required, so the value is unsure.

A life-sized statue of a smiling figure with a tan turban and a red kumkum mark on the forehead, wearing a long white flower garland of jasmine-like blossoms, a jewelled necklace with red, green and white stones, and a deep maroon garment. The raised hand is shown in a blessing gesture. The figure is set before an ornate gold-toned gilded frame with floral and peacock-like motifs, and a blurred red and blue background. This is a statue depiction, not a physical person.

A photograph of a small statue of a standing guru figure with long dark hair, wearing a white head covering, a cream dhoti, and a red bindi. A pink marigold garland drapes around its neck over an ornate jewelled necklace. It stands on a golden pedestal within a gilded arched backdrop with ornamental finials and a small golden umbrella above the head, against draped red and blue fabric decorated with blue sequins and pink and purple lotus flowers. This is a statue, not a living person, and the scene is a festive altar display.
