A black stone deity murti stands in a gilded arched niche against a grey granite wall. The figure wears a tall golden crown with red and green stones, a white and gold-bordered dhoti-style cloth, an orange silk waist cloth, and layered gold and jewelled necklaces with green-stone earrings. Its raised hands hold ornamental discs, and a red and orange flower garland drapes around the arch. A small bronze figure stands on a dark stone pedestal in front of it, also garlanded. No people are visible in the scene.2010-02-09January 08 20172017-01-08April 14 20182018-04-14 +1 copiesNovember 09 20072007-11-09October 01 20062006-10-01May 13 20132013-05-13Photograph of a golden Shiva and Parvati deity murti seated together on a decorated altar, richly adorned with gold necklaces and crowns, framed by an arch of colourful flower garlands in yellow, red, purple and white.
