A photograph of a black stone deity murti standing on a dark pedestal inside a shrine with a gold-painted wall and a maroon and gold cloth hanging above. The figure wears a tall green and silver crown, a red and green silk dhoti with gold borders, a large white-and-silver necklace, and a garland of yellow marigolds and pink flowers. It holds a trident topped with a pink flower in the left hand and has its right hand raised in abhaya mudra. A red sign on the pedestal reads KAILASA Thanjavur. Brass oil lamp, bell and a small plate stand in front, and a timestamp reads Oct 27 2025 9:14:12 PM Karanthai Thanjavur Tamil Nadu.
