A photograph of a large warehouse-style hall with a corrugated metal roof, fluorescent tube lights and exposed red steel beams. Rows of bronze and gilded metal deity statues line the floor, including a dancing Nataraja-style figure within an arched prabhavali, a standing bronze figure, and a seated golden figure in the lower right. In the left foreground a large bronze seated figure with an ornate crown and raised hands is partly visible. Several people walk through the aisle: a few wear saffron/orange robes, one wears a black head covering and red garment, and one man in white clothes stands near the centre. The scene appears to be a workshop or storage area for statues.

A workshop storage area filled with temple metalwork and carved wooden items. In the foreground, a gilded standing deity murti with a tall crown and a bronze standing figure stand on a metal trolley. Nearby, brass and bronze kalasha-like finials, a carved wooden bull with saddle cloth, and disassembled wooden temple parts rest on orange and purple cloths. Shelves and bolts of cloth line the back wall, with a few marigold garlands among the objects.

A photograph inside a long, low-roofed workshop lit by overhead tube lights, with a brick-paved central aisle. Along both sides stand rows of finished and unfinished deity murtis and ritual figures, many gold-toned or reddish, placed on wooden bases and tables. Near the centre-right a man in a white shirt and light trousers stands beside the figures, with a second worker in white further down the aisle. On the left, the edge of a person in white clothing is visible in the foreground, next to workbenches holding tools, cloth and a few small objects. Machinery and a wooden framework are visible on the left. Sheet-metal roofing and mesh-covered side windows frame the space.

A covered workshop filled with large bronze and brass deity statues on red wooden bases. In the centre, a tall Nataraja-style dancing Shiva figure stands within an ornate ring of flame-like arch, its arms raised. To the left, a large golden-brown standing male statue wears a short dhoti-style garment. Behind them, seated and standing figures, a kalasha-like pot and a crowned deity murti line the shelves, with metal chains and a black pole on the right. No people are visible.

A row of gilded metal deity murti statues stands on a concrete floor in a plain warehouse-style room, arranged on wooden-looking bases in front of a white block wall. Several figures wear red, orange, magenta and blue draped garments, and one central figure has an elephant head. Two large printed portrait banners hang on the wall behind them: the left one shows a man with long dark hair holding a cup, and the right one shows a woman with long dark hair and a red bindi, arms raised near her face. A green striped cloth is draped over a stand at left, and a yellow banner hangs at the top. No living people are visible in the scene.

A photograph inside a large open-sided workshop hall with a corrugated roof and fluorescent lights, its floor paved with grey tiles. Rows of finished brass and bronze deity statues on wooden bases fill the floor, including standing figures, a seated figure and a cobra-hooded image. On the left a green wooden palanquin or ratha stands beside a shelf with a garland. Several men in traditional dhotis stand in the middle distance; one wears a blue shirt and holds a camera, another wears a red and gold shawl, and a figure in saffron-orange robes stands near the right. No figure is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance.
