A close view of a deity murti adorned with a jewelled face covering and decorative ornaments. The face is covered by a bejewelled silver-and-gold mukha with white and red stones, orange flower-like petals, green and red accents and pearl-like beads. Above it sits a maroon turban-style head cloth with a gold and white stone ornament. The murti is draped in maroon silk with gold brocade and wears a gold-toned necklace set with dark blue stones. Gold-toned metal panels stand behind, and the setting appears to be a temple shrine.
