A photograph of a temple scene in which a man with long dark hair, bare-shouldered in a rust-orange wrap and saffron cloth, stands at left with his back to the camera, arranging or adjusting garlands on a deity murti. The murti wears a tall white crown, heavy gold necklaces, and a blue embroidered garment, and is adorned with marigold, yellow and red flower garlands. Behind it stands a gilded ornate arch and a deep red curtain. A smaller figure in a blue-and-green garment beside it also wears flower garlands and gold jewellery.
