Photograph of a decorated shrine with two golden murti figures seated on a throne-like platform, surrounded by arches of yellow, orange, purple, red and white flower garlands. The central figure wears a crown, a trident-like staff and a purple and gold garment with a jewelled necklace; the figure beside wears an orange-gold sari, a crown and pearl-and-stone necklaces. Another golden figure stands at the right with a bearded face and red-white garlands, and a figure at the far left wears a blue turban. Brass oil lamps burn in the foreground and green-stone pendants hang from the platform. No living people are visible. Overlay text reads pedia.org, which is omitted
