Golden deity murti pair in a gilded arched shrine with black backdrop, garlanded with yellow, red and purple flower malas.

The female deity beside him wears an orange sari, crown and layered gold necklaces. In front, a white-clad figure in an orange-and-maroon turban sits on a golden seat, appearing to be a statue or depiction rather than a living person, with a green-robed white figure below. Brass oil lamps, incense sticks, a kalasha and offering bowls stand on the ledge.
