A gilded metal deity murti stands centrally, wearing a tall crown with a cobra hood rising above a fan-shaped headdress. It wears a dark maroon and gold-bordered silk garment, layered jeweled necklaces and a rudraksha-style chain. Its raised hands hold a trident and a ritual staff with a curved top. Behind it hang pale lavender draped curtains and a row of golden leaf-shaped offerings lies in the foreground. The statue is a figure, not a person; no living people are visible.2017-10-01A gilded metal statue of a deity stands against a pale lavender draped curtain.
