The male murti holds a trident and wears an orange turban, white dhoti, rudraksha-style and jewelled necklaces; the female murti wears a green sari with gold border, red blouse and layered jewelled necklaces. Red and purple roses in vases flank them, with brass oil lamps at the base, one lamp lit. No physical people are visible.2015-07-02A gilded temple shrine arch frames a pair of metal murti figures seated on a raised platform draped in pink and white cloth. The male figure wears an orange-red turban with a crescent ornament, a trident in one hand, and a heavy jewelled necklace. The female figure beside him wears a teal and white sari, a dark headdress with ornaments, and layered silver necklaces. Multicoloured flower garlands in yellow, pink and white hang over both figures, and a metal yantra-like object with a kalasha-style top sits in front.
