A photograph of a standing black stone statue, a deity murti, on a dark pedestal inside a shrine. The figure wears a tall cylindrical crown with a green velvet centre banded by silver-white beaded rims and a diamond-shaped ornament at the front, a red and white tilak on the forehead, and a large layered necklace of white, green and red stones with a bright yellow and pink flower garland. The right hand is raised in abhaya mudra with a small red flower placed on the palm. The lower body is draped in a pink dhoti with a gold-brocade shawl draped over both shoulders. Behind the statue hang yellow, red and white silk cloths with gold borders. The base carries a red sign reading KAILASA THANJAVUR, and yellow flowers lie at the feet. The image has a date stamp reading Sep 1, 2024 at the lower right.
