Photograph of a gilded processional murti of a seated deity couple draped in garlands of white, pink, purple, yellow and green flowers against a red satin cloth. The male figure wears an orange turban with a crescent ornament, holds a trident and makes a gesture of blessing, and wears layered gold necklaces. The female figure wears a tall gold crown, multi-strand jewelled necklaces and large earrings, and holds a small lotus-like object. A deity murti rather than living people.2014-12-05September 16 20132013-09-16July 04 20132013-07-04 +1 copiesTwo golden deity murti sit side by side on a palanquin-style throne framed by a lime-green silk drape and ornate gilded arch.
