A richly decorated deity murti of Krishna, dark-skinned with a gold crown and jewelled headdress, is almost entirely covered by dense garlands of red roses, yellow and white marigolds, jasmine and magenta flower strands. The figure wears heavy gold ornaments, a large gold and jewelled necklace with coin-like pendants, and a white flower at the chest, while a white and red silk garment with gold border covers the lower body. The murti is placed against a dark background, framed by flower-draped columns. No human figures are visible in the frame.
