A metal deity murti stands in a gilded arched frame on a red velvet-draped altar. The figure wears an orange sari-like garment and a long white flower garland, with a crown-like headdress. Beside it, a small orange-draped object with a jeweled white necklace sits on a gold base, possibly a kalasha or a ritual item. Carved stone pillars with floral and scroll motifs stand behind, and a yellow and magenta cloth hangs at the right edge.
