A vertically oriented painting, rendered in a traditional Bengali style, depicts the Hindu goddess Durga at its center, multi-armed and positioned to slay the buffalo demon Mahishasura. To Durga's left (viewer's right) are goddess Lakshmi with her owl mount and Kartikeya with his peacock mount. To Durga's right (viewer's left) are goddess Saraswati with her swan mount and the elephant-headed god Ganesha with his mouse mount. An arc of smaller figures, including celestial beings or devotees, frames the top section of the painting. The artwork utilizes a vibrant color palette of reds, oranges, yellows, greens, and blues, with distinct outlines. The painting is enclosed within a light yellow frame and prominently illuminated from below by a single, bright LED floodlight, creating a strong focal point and localized glare. This entire display is integrated into a larger structure constructed from woven matting, likely bamboo or straw, which forms the background and a partial frame for the artwork. Dark fabric elements are visible to the sides, with draped red fabric visible at the bottom and right, serving as decorative elements. The scene strongly suggests an elaborate temporary installation, consistent with a Durga Puja pandal in Kolkata, India.
