A photograph through an ornate gold-leaf doorway into a shrine. A deity murti stands on a raised red-draped platform beneath a gilded arch and red velvet backdrop, wearing a tall golden crown, a purple and gold brocade garment, and yellow marigold garlands. Brass oil lamps and candle stands flank the murti. On the black-and-white checkered marble floor in front, a red cloth holds a brass plate, a small brass lamp, a coconut and offering items, and a silver-covered vessel sits beside a metal box. A small lamp burns at the lower left threshold. No people are visible.
