A temple shrine with a large deity murti of Shiva seated on a red-draped platform in front of an orange curtain and an ornate gold arch. The central figure holds a trident and wears a crown, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces and bracelets, and his consort sits beside him in a purple sari with gold jewellery and a tall crown. Two standing attendant statues flank them, one in a red turban and one with a tall dark headdress, both in beaded necklaces. A large lingam at the base is draped in garlands of yellow and magenta flowers and a bead necklace, with a blue cloth and a gold snake-hood motif above it. Oil lamps stand at the right edge.
