Two ornately dressed metal murti figures seated side by side in a procession setting, draped with red and white jasmine garlands. The left figure wears a red turban with a peacock feather, a red and gold dhoti, and layered jewelled necklaces and armlets; he holds a long black staff. The right figure wears a black crown with gold ornaments, a royal blue and purple silk sari with gold border, and layered gold and jewelled necklaces. A brass oil lamp sits in the lower left foreground, and a gold-framed arch and red curtain form the backdrop. These are statues, not living people.
