A photograph of a temple shrine with a seated figure at the centre on a golden throne within a large ornate green-gold arch. The seated figure wears a red-and-orange cloth, a long green-beaded necklace and rudraksha-style beads, and raises one arm holding a trident. Flanking the throne are two large painted guardian statues with multiple arms, crowns and tridents, set against pink and blue decorated pillars with floral motifs. Brass oil lamp stands stand at the sides, and the scene is lit in pink and green light. The seated figure appears to be a statue or painted image rather than a living person, so no physical person is counted.
