Close photograph of a deity murti decorated for worship. The face is hidden beneath an orange and gold silk cloth, with a white and gold garment and a jewelled diamond-studded collar. Thick garlands of pink rose petals drape around the figure, and yellow and purple marigold garlands lie at the bottom. Above the head rises a golden multi-hooded serpent canopy set with green and blue gem pendants. Yellow silk hangs in the background, and carved stone pillars stand to the right. The image is a photograph of a statue rather than a living person, so no physical person is visible.
