The figure wears a jewelled crown and elaborate gold and gem-studded necklaces, with red and yellow marigold garlands draped around the shoulders and arms. Below, the tiers hold coconuts, brass kalashas wrapped with white flowers and red rose garlands, small clay figures, and bundled straw brooms. A silver and purple cloth canopy rises behind the figure. No people are visible in the frame; the setting suggests a puja or abhishekam display, though no ritual is clearly shown.2015-07-16A deity murti is seated within an elaborately decorated flower canopy shrine on a stage. The shrine is framed by thick garlands of red roses, white jasmine, yellow marigolds and green foliage, with a flower crown at the top. The central deity wears a silver crown and a green garment, with a large golden swan (hamsa) carved beside it. Two smaller attendant figures stand on either side, and a silver puja bowl sits in front on a red and orange silk cloth. No people are visible in the image.2011-10-02September 19 20152015-09-19December 17 20162016-12-17October 19 20152015-10-19June 23 20172017-06-23A decorated deity murti of a goddess stands in a gilded shrine niche with a red backdrop. Her face is painted yellow with a red bindi and she wears a crown and halo. She is draped in a rich brown silk with layered jewelled necklaces set with red stones and pearls, framed by white jasmine garlands and red roses. Two large kalasha-like pots with green leaves and yellow flowers flank her, wrapped in orange and red silk with matching garlands and bead necklaces. A small carved wooden figure of a bearded sage with pearl necklaces sits at the lower right. This appears to be a festival decoration of the deity with no people visible.2016-10-29
