A golden bronze statue of Nataraja, Shiva as Lord of the Dance, stands on a pedestal before a gilded lattice screen. The deity has four arms, one foot raised, and a flaming arch of fire encircling him, with a small dwarf figure beneath his foot. Fine engraved ornaments and a flowing sash decorate the figure, and a cobra is visible curling near his arm. The image is a photograph of a deity murti, with no people present.
