Close-up photograph of a golden metal deity murti with a polished face, painted black eyebrows and eyes, a red lip and a red bindi on the forehead. The figure wears an orange-red headcloth with gold brocade border, a jeweled crown ornament set with green and red stones, and jeweled earrings. Red flower garlands and jeweled necklaces surround the neck. Behind it hangs a green shimmering fabric with gold sequins, and a partly visible human hand appears at the right edge. No a person candidate is visible.2011-10-02November 17 20112011-11-17Close-up photograph of a gilded metal deity murti or processional image with a painted face, black-lined eyes, red lips and an ornate jeweled crown, draped in orange silk with gold-thread borders. Fresh flowers, including red roses, white blooms and yellow marigolds, are arranged around it on green foliage, and a wooden pole stands at the right edge. No living people are visible, so the image shows only the murti and its floral decoration. The face is a statue, not a person.2009-07-07 +1 copiesJune 27 20092009-06-27Close-up photograph of a gilded, polished metal face mask of a ceremonial figure wearing an elaborate orange-red turban with gold brocade and jeweled ornaments. A crystal-studded necklace with pearl drops and a large jeweled brooch adorn the headdress, a red jeweled tiara sits above the brow, and the lips are painted red against a dark background. This appears to be a theatrical or ritual figure mask rather than a living person; no human is visible.2009-11-19September 10 20112011-09-10June 27 20092009-06-27August 28 20112011-08-28 +1 copiesNovember 24 20112011-11-24June 28 20092009-06-28November 25 20112011-11-25 +1 copiesClose-up photograph of a golden metal statue head wearing a bright orange turban with jeweled ornaments, green and red stone accents, and a jeweled brow piece. The face has painted dark eyes, red lips and a small nose ring, set against yellow marigold garlands and a dark background. No living person is visible; the figure is a statue, so the a person field is depiction only if an appearance-based candidate is present, which is not established here.2008-12-26
