A photograph of a shrine with an ornate gold-toned metal backdrop of repoussé floral and figural relief. In front stands a dark bronze or stone Shiva lingam wrapped in a red and yellow cloth with a pearl-and-gold tilak-style band, draped with a gold necklace pendant. Green and red silk cloths drape around its base, with yellow flower petals scattered on the polished metal platform and a small silver bowl with water to the left. No people are visible; the scene is an empty temple sanctum.A bronze-toned statue of a figure with long dark dreadlock-style hair, a red tilak on the forehead, a multi-strand pearl necklace, and a green silk skirt with gold and maroon brocade border, standing on a carved brown pedestal. The right hand is raised in blessing and the left hand rests open at the side. Behind it, gilded temple pillars and a red curtain stand in a shrine room with scattered red petals on the floor. No living people are visible; the figure is a statue, so the a person field is depiction only if the statue carries the cues, and the statue lacks the crown, saffron garb and rudraksha cues needed, so it is marked unsure.A small metal deity murti stands on a dark stone pedestal inside a temple shrine, photographed from low angle. The figure has a polished silver face, a red tilak on the forehead, and a tall black topknot with a dark cylindrical crown. It wears a green and gold striped silk skirt with a red and gold border, a red and gold shawl across the chest, a white beaded necklace, and a gold yellow-thread sash. It holds a brass cup-like vessel in one hand, and the other arm hangs at the side. Behind the figure a larger deity wears a pink and gold silk garment, with purple and red draped cloth in the background. No people are visible.

A small bronze-toned statue of a standing male figure with long black hair, a maroon turban, a red tilak on the forehead, a gold beaded necklace and a magenta shawl over bare shoulders. Its right hand is raised in abhaya mudra and its left hand rests at the side. A gold and orange patterned dhoti is tied at the waist. Behind it stand ornate gold carved throne-like pillars against red drapes, and red flower petals are scattered on a black glossy platform. This is a statue, not a living person, so the physical people count is zero.Photograph of a temple shrine with an ornate gold-toned repoussé backdrop carved with floral and scroll patterns and a central arched niche containing a small deity murti.
