A small shrine room with yellow painted walls and a black-and-white checkered marble floor. A large printed portrait of a seated, bare-chested man with long swept-back dark hair, a crescent-marked crown-like headdress, and layered beaded garlands raises one hand in blessing while a clay pot hangs above his lap on pink cords. Below, in a sunken square pit, a black lingam with a white tripundra and a green leaf rests in white cloth, with a small silver-grey deity murti beside it. The printed image is a depiction, not a person present.
