A photograph of a stone-pillared shrine with a golden arched niche framing a pair of seated deity murtis, one in red with a gold crown and garland and one in yellow-orange robes with a crown and jewelled necklace, both draped with multicoloured flower garlands. A small seated figure in white with a red turban sits before them, and a golden ornate throne with a red cushion occupies the foreground. Gold lamp stands with brass oil lamps flank the shrine, and red curtains and green foliage appear behind. Two partly visible people, one in yellow at the lower right and one at the lower left, are seen from behind.
