The murti on the left wears a tall jewelled crown, a multi-strand jewelled necklace, and raises one hand in blessing; the murti on the right wears a tall crown and layered silver-toned jewellery. Both stand on flower-covered pedestals, with a green and gold draped backdrop behind them. The scene shows deity murtis, not living people, and no person is visible.
