A close-up photograph of a black stone deity murti with a gold-plated crown and armour, wearing an orange cloth tied across the head like a turban. The four gold arms hold ceremonial objects, and the figure wears a rudraksha mala, a silver-and-jewelled necklace, and gold jewellery. Behind it hangs a green draped cloth patterned with gold motifs, and an ornate silver frame edges the left side. The statue is not a living person.
