Physical description

Poster depicting Sri Vahanwati Mata(?). Seven men in a boat with a bird-shaped prow, four of which are praying, one is climbing the rigging, and two are sitting at the top of the mast, one with an orange flag in his hand. A lion with a woman sitting on its back is standing in the water behind the boat. The woman has four arms. Three of her hands hold objects: her lower right hand holds a trident, the left hand resting on her lap holds a lotus blossom, and the second left hand holds a sword. The woman is wearing a red, green and gold sari with bracelets on each arm, and jewelry around her neck. Her left nostril has an ornament attached. She has a yellow halo and a gold headdress. In the distance is another similar boat with two sails. A building with a flag on top is located in the top of a hill with shrubs. There is script written in six places and a swastika on the large boat.
