A golden seated statue of a male figure on an ornate gilded throne with lion-armrest carvings, wearing a red and orange turban, a yellow marigold garland, layered beaded necklaces and an orange-gold shawl over red cloth. Behind him a golden goddess murti in a crowned headdress with a pink drape and jeweled garland stands in an arched niche. Two decorative umbrella-like canopies with red and gold embroidery flank the throne. In front, brass oil lamps with lit flames, a brass plate with offerings and a small brass kalasha sit on a black-and-white checkered marble floor, with ash or incense smoke rising. No living people are visible; the subject is a statue.
