Seated Four-Armed Ganesha
The statue depicts a four-armed figure with an elephant's head. The figure sits cross-legged on a flat base with its back legs folded under its body. Two metal prongs protrude from the base on either side. The figure wears a dhoti and has a large trunk that curls down to the left. The figure's right arms hold objects; one appears to be a small figurine, and the other a loop. The left arms are bent at the elbow, with hands in front of the body. A decorative headpiece adorns the top of the elephant's head. The statue appears to be made of metal and has a weathered appearance.
