A pale grey-white plaster sculpture of a seated deity couple within an ornate arched frame with leafy carved borders and pillars. The seated male figure on the left wears a tall crown and raises one hand, while the female figure on the right wears a tall headdress and rests a hand in her lap. They sit on a shared pedestal. Around the base lie broken plaster fragments, a cracked piece, and a carved animal-like head. Behind is a dark vehicle body and a dusty wheel arch.

A large dark grey stone sculpture of a deity pair dominates the frame. The seated male figure, with a tall crown and a raised hand in abhaya mudra, holds a damaru-like drum and an elaborate ornamental necklace; beside him, a female figure in a matching tall crown holds a lotus-like object. Palm trees and a grey stone wall stand behind. In the background a woman in white clothing walks past a signboard and a banner reading Annadhan, and a few white-clad figures are at the edges. The sculpture appears to be a deity murti rather than a living person.
