A photograph of three small devotional statues (murtis) set on a gold-embroidered cloth at a shrine, framed by a golden arch and draped with marigold and red rose garlands. The central figure wears a white pearl-studded crown, an orange garment, a green and white bead mala and a trident-like staff, and the two flanking figures wear orange cloth, layered necklaces and ornate headpieces. Offerings and loose flowers, including yellow marigolds and pink roses, lie at the base, with a bundle of green grass tied in the foreground and a copper kalasha and pot behind. No living people are visible; the subjects are statues, so the a person field is depiction only if a candidate were present, and the statues show no identifiable portrait.
