The larger murti on the left wears a tall white and red crown, a gold necklace, a rudraksha-style mala, and holds a palm raised in abhaya gesture; a red cloth with written Tamil text rests on its lap. The smaller murti on the right wears an ornate jewelled crown with green stones and a heavy gold collar. Gold ornaments and a gold kalasha-like vessel frame the scene. The image is a photograph of statues, with no living people visible.2013-07-16August 16 20182018-08-16December 23 20072007-12-23A decorated deity procession image inside a temple corridor. In the centre, a golden metal murti of a seated deity with a crown and a red-brown cloth backdrop sits beside a standing murti in a golden crown, maroon garment and ornate blue-and-gold jewelry, its hand raised in blessing. Thick garlands of yellow, white, red and green flowers frame the figures, and a golden arch arches overhead. A living man stands at the left edge, back partly turned, with long dark hair, a red-brown cloth and a flower garland around his head, and a gold bracelet on his arm. Ornate gold ornaments and oil lamps are visible at the lower left. The statues are not people; the single physical person is the standing man at the left.2016-12-14A photograph of two gold-faced deity murtis richly decorated for worship, each wearing a tall jewelled crown and an orange-and-cream silk garment with floral and gem-studded ornaments.
