A golden statue of a saint, dressed in maroon and gold-bordered garments with a gold turban and a jewelled crown, is framed by a dense arch of marigold, rose and white jasmine garlands in red, orange, yellow and green. Layered silver and pearl necklaces, a jewelled belt and gold armlets adorn the figure, which holds one gold hand near the chest. The setting is a decorated shrine with a gold arched canopy above. The figure is a statue, not a living person, and a blurred green leaf fills the lower foreground.2015-06-03November 05 20102010-11-05A deity murti is decorated for worship, standing in a gilded arched frame draped with garlands of yellow, green, red, white and orange flowers.
