A decorated deity murti of Lord Subramanya (Murugan) stands in a garlanded alcove. The figure has a golden face, a tall crown, jewelled necklaces and an ornate silver-and-gold body covering, and holds a spear-like vel with a small flag. Thick garlands of white jasmine, marigold, purple and red blooms frame the figure. In the foreground a golden peacock, his vahana, with a feathered crest and beak, sits on a maroon silk cloth. No people are visible.
