Photo 11741349 +1 copiesA temple shrine photograph showing a deity murti of Shiva and Parvati seated together on a decorated pedestal, Shiva holding a trident and Parvati in ornate jewelled attire with a richly brocaded skirt. Garlands of white, red, yellow and purple flowers drape the figures and a shivalinga-like object in front. Two standing attendant statues flank the shrine, each wearing an orange-red turban, rudraksha-style beads and flower garlands. A woman in an orange sari with a dark patterned blouse stands in the foreground facing the deities, presenting offerings. Gold and mosaic-tiled arches frame the shrine, with carved lion figures at the base.2018-12-20Photo 11681226 +2 copiesJanuary 03 20162016-01-03A photograph of a temple shrine during a ritual. In the centre, a bare-headed-to-the-side figure with long dark hair sits on a gold seat wearing a red-and-orange garment. Beside them, a gold deity murti is seated, wearing a crown and layered necklaces. A shaved-headed priest in a rust-coloured dhoti and shawl stands at left, holding a small silver vessel and offering it toward the central seat, in what appears to be an abhishekam or aarti. The shrine is framed by garlands of yellow marigolds and purple, red and white flowers. Two tall golden oil lamps stand in the foreground, a large brass kalasha sits at the centre base, and two painted portrait figures flank the scene. A photographer and onlookers are visible at the bottom edge.2016-01-03July 09 20172017-07-09July 09 20172017-07-09December 20 20182018-12-20 +1 copiesJanuary 04 20152015-01-04 +1 copiesDecember 20 20182018-12-20 +1 copiesOctober 01 20182018-10-01December 20 20182018-12-20 +1 copies
