Two gilded metal deity murtis stand side by side in front of a magenta draped backdrop within an ornate golden arch. The left figure, with a fierce-looking face and a trident, wears an orange and red turban and a red beaded necklace, holding a trident and a damaru-like hand drum. The right figure wears a black hair crown with gold and jeweled ornaments, a white garment with red border, layered gold and beaded necklaces, and large jeweled earrings. Both are garlanded with yellow marigolds and red roses, and a small green parrot sits near the right figure's shoulder. Green leaves decorate the base. These are statues, not living people, and no person is visible.
