A gold and gemstone crown-like headpiece with green stones sits above, flanked by a gold cobra hood backdrop. Garlands of red roses and yellow marigolds hang down both sides, with a silver-and-gold jeweled band across the forehead area and a gold tiered base below. Greenery and yellow flowers are scattered around the base, with draped silk cloth behind. This appears to be a festival alankaram adornment of the deity.2013-07-04 +1 copiesMarch 16 20202020-03-16 +2 copiesA photograph of a decorated deity murti seated on a golden throne in a temple setting.
