Two gilded statues of a divine couple are seated on a pink-draped throne before a deep red curtain within a gold-carved arch. The male figure on the left wears an orange-red turban, a jewelled crown, a heavy jewelled necklace with a green stone, and holds a trident. The female figure on the right wears a crown, layered ornate necklaces, and a purple and orange sari, holding a small staff. Both are garlanded with yellow and magenta flower strands. Brass oil lamps flank the sides, and a decorative shield-like plate with jewelled hangings rests in front. This is a statue scene, not living people.
