A photograph of three decorated metal murti statues seated side by side on a golden-yellow wall backdrop beside a hanging brass oil lamp. The central figure stands taller, wearing a tall black and red crown with a crescent moon and a three-line tilak, an orange and gold garment, and layered silver and red-stone necklaces; it holds a trident-like staff in one hand and raises the other in abhaya mudra. The figures on either side wear maroon and purple garments, ornate silver and jewelled necklaces, and tall decorated headdresses, with green-and-gold garland borders draped over their shoulders. Maroon cloth with gold triangular patterns hangs behind them. These are statues, not living people.
