The male figure wears an orange-red turban, a jewelled crown and an embellished gold chest ornament, and holds a sceptre-like object. The female figure wears a jewelled crown, layered gold necklaces and a red-gold sari, and holds a parrot. Both are garlanded with red and yellow flowers and green leaves. In front, a Shiva lingam with a cobra hood above it, wrapped in an orange cloth, rudraksha beads and flower garlands, is set in a gold base. The setting suggests a temple shrine.2011-11-27Photo 11731786A golden deity murti of a seated god and goddess under a gilded arch with yellow draped curtains.
