Nithyanandapedia
A gilded metal murti of a deity seated on a golden throne with an arched gold backdrop, dressed in a white dhoti and crowned with a tall ornate crown. Garlands of red, yellow, white and purple flowers cascade across its shoulders and arms, and it holds a trident. Brass oil lamps stand on the draped gold cloth at either side, and the altar is decorated with gold and flower garlands. No physical people are visible; this is a statue, so a person is none.
