A photograph of a shrine inside a temple-like hall with carved grey stone pillars and an ornate gold arch. Two painted deity figures sit on a green-skirted pedestal: the male figure wears a red turban and holds a trident and a drum, the female figure wears a purple blouse and a jewelled crown and holds a bow. In front is a red-and-gold conical kalasha-like object draped in garlands of yellow, orange, purple and red flowers, with a jewelled necklace and a hanging fringe of green stones. Brass oil lamps stand on either side. At the right, a figure in a red-and-orange garment with long dark hair stands in a gold-framed niche with a saffron curtain. No physical people are visible in the scene.2013-02-20April 26 20132013-04-26April 26 20132013-04-26Inside a richly gilded temple shrine, a large sculpted deity pair sits on a golden-curtained dais: the male figure wears a red turban, a multi-strand gold-and-red bead necklace and holds a trident, while the female figure wears a crown, green-and-white bead garland and a blue-and-gold sari. Between them stands a red-clothed stone idol decorated with a white flower garland and a gold-and-green crown-like headdress, set before a red cloth draped throne and surrounded by brass lamps, kalasha pots and puja vessels. On the right, a smaller gilded niche holds a standing statue of a saint in saffron-orange dhoti, rudraksha-style beads and a shawl, with green drapery behind. Shown as a photograph of an empty shrine with no physical people.2013-06-05April 26 20132013-04-26November 25 20112011-11-25April 24 20132013-04-24December 16 20092009-12-16October 27 20082008-10-27April 06 20132013-04-06 +1 copiesJune 27 20092009-06-27September 07 20112011-09-07
