Golden statues of two deities seated side by side before a red draped backdrop framed by an ornate gold arch. The figure on the left wears an orange and gold turban and an orange shawl heavy with necklaces and a rudraksha-bead mala, and holds a sceptre. The figure on the right wears a tall crown with a gold halo, a yellow and orange garment, layered jewelled necklaces and a long pink flower garland, with one hand raised. Green leaves and pink flowers decorate the figures, and a copper kalasha vessel stands at the left edge. These are deity murti statues, not people.
