A red kumkum mark is painted on the coconut, and green leaves and a grass tuft are tucked around it. Behind it, a woman in a red sari with a yellow flower garland and gold bangles is partly visible at right, with a blue patterned cloth at left. The arrangement suggests a puja or abhishekam offering.2013-10-12A deity murti is heavily adorned with thick garlands of yellow marigolds interwoven with red roses, with a golden crown and jewelled necklaces. Behind it are a banana leaf and a red cloth, with draped pink and maroon fabric below. Partial garlands and flowers frame the edges, and white-clad legs of people stand at the top edge, out of focus.2013-10-07October 12 20132013-10-12October 07 20132013-10-07A deity murti is adorned for worship, draped in a deep maroon cloth with gold zari border and covered in dense garlands of yellow marigolds and red roses, with green mango leaves tucked around the base. A tall silver crown with jewelled ornaments rises above the figure, and a silver-rimmed kalasha-like vessel and silver necklaces are visible at the centre. Brass pots with flower garlands sit at the left and right edges, and a bamboo-like palm frond stands among the flowers. A brick wall forms the background. This appears to be a flower-decorated alankar for a puja.2013-11-04October 07 20132013-10-07October 07 20132013-10-07December 17 20162016-12-17December 22 20162016-12-22
