A photograph of a richly decorated deity murti standing on an orange-draped base inside a gilded arched frame. The central figure wears a jewelled crown, orange garment with ornate gem-studded ornaments, and holds a long silver spear-like staff with a flag and a raised hand. Beside it stands a second, smaller female murti in an orange sari with pearl and gold beaded adornments and a jewelled headdress. A dense gold garland of rose-like flowers drapes across the base. Small brass oil lamps and a white ritual vessel sit at the front, with a pink cloth below. The statues are not people.
