Close view of a large gilded kalasha-shaped vessel on a gold-painted pedestal inside a golden shrine, topped by a deity murti wrapped in a jewelled ornament and draped in a red cloth, decorated with yellow and white flower garlands and green leaves. Two gilded seated devotee figures with folded hands flank the base, and small silver bowls with offerings sit in front, with scattered petals on the platform. Blurred figures in the background suggest ritual activity. No identifiable living person is clearly visible in the foreground.2020-03-16March 16 20202020-03-16Photo 11728683 +2 copiesMarch 16 20202020-03-16 +2 copiesPhoto 11728741 +2 copiesMarch 16 20202020-03-16 +2 copiesA photograph of a decorated deity murti inside a temple, framed by thick garlands of yellow and orange marigolds, white jasmine strands and green leaves with red and white floral pieces. The murti wears a deep maroon garland and a jewelled necklace. Behind it stands a large gleaming gold kalasha on a golden base. A small brass lamp and a brass vessel sit on white-draped platforms in front. At the right edge a partly visible person in orange robes holds a bunch of flowers, and a figure in a turquoise cloth kneels at the left. The setting is dim and ceremonial.2009-06-09Photo 11728760 +2 copiesMarch 15 20202020-03-15 +2 copiesJuly 09 20152015-07-09 +1 copiesA gilded arched shrine framed by carved gold pillars and lion figures holds a central deity murti with a crown, flanked by two smaller consort figures, all adorned with thick garlands of red, yellow, white and green flowers.

Yellow and red flower garlands drape down both sides, and rudraksha beads hang across the form. Two brass oil lamps stand at the base beside a red and orange cloth with white flowers. No people are visible; the image shows only the decorated murti and its offerings, in an abhishekam-style temple setting.2015-11-21
