Interior view through an open wooden doorway of a shrine in Varanasi, showing a deity murti of a goddess seated on a lion, crowned with a silver halo-like headdress, draped in a red and white sari and garlanded with orange marigolds. Red and maroon cloth canopies frame the murti. On the black-and-white checkered marble floor before the altar are brass lamps, marigold-filled plates, a conch shell, a kalasha pot, small brass cups and coconuts. No people are visible.
