A large blue-skinned Kali murti stands centrally, tongue protruding, with a white shell-like crown and white lace-patterned ornaments at the ears and arms. She wears layered red and gold necklaces, a long white garment with lace patterns, and a gold-coin garland with a chain of yellow painted demon heads. Her black hair falls loose, and she holds a red raised hand, a red sword and a severed head. Orange and red decorative umbrellas with floral motifs flank her, and a potted plant appears to the right.

A large blue-skinned deity murti of Kali stands at the centre of the frame, with a tall white crown, long black hair, a white and gold-embroidered garment decorated with mirror work, and a garland of white and yellow flowers. The deity has a protruding red tongue and holds a metal disc, a curved blade and a severed head, with several small painted demon heads strung on a necklace. In front is a brass pot wrapped in yellow marigold garlands with mango leaves, and a dark ritual offering sits at the base. Behind is a backdrop of large banyan tree trunks and green leaves.
