A photograph of a pair of silver-metal deity murti seated side by side on a raised platform within a gilded arched frame against a red backdrop with blue draped fabric. The figure on the left wears a red turban, rudraksha-style garland of pink and white flowers, ornate silver necklaces, and holds a trident; the figure on the right wears a tall ornamented crown, white and pink garlands, and holds a staff. Both are draped in red-orange garments with gold borders over a purple satin skirt-like cloth. An oil lamp and offering items sit at the lower left, and a small green bird figure appears near the center. No physical people are visible.2013-02-10February 20 20132013-02-20Photograph of a pair of gilded murti statues seated on a red-draped throne within an ornate golden arched niche. The male figure wears a red turban, a blue and gold dhoti and a jewelled necklace, and holds a trident and a small drum-like instrument. The female figure wears a dark crown, large earrings, layered gold necklaces and a purple sari, holding a lotus-like object. Both are garlanded with white and red flower garlands, and the scene suggests a puja setting. These are statues, not physical people.2010-06-06May 02 20132013-05-02July 10 20132013-07-10 +1 copiesMay 30 20132013-05-30December 14 20102010-12-14June 07 20102010-06-07A photograph of a golden-framed shrine holding two seated bronze-toned deity murtis on a purple-draped platform against a gold backdrop and red curtains.
