June 20 20132013-06-20September 26 20132013-09-26Painted temple sculpture of a seated deity pair set within a blue arched niche with painted clouds. The male figure on the left has a gold crown, a red tilak, a gold belt and armbands, and raises one hand in abhaya gesture while holding a small gold drum-like object. The female figure on the right wears a gold crown, a long orange sari, gold necklaces and bangles, and has green skin, resting her hand on the male figure's shoulder. The figures are statues, so no physical people are present. The setting is an exterior temple niche, and the scene reads as a deity murti depiction.2013-09-29September 26 20132013-09-26 +1 copiesA painted sculpture in a shrine niche, showing a seated deity murti with a raised hand holding a small object and a consort seated beside him in an orange and yellow sari with jewelry.
