A photograph of a large floral-decorated seated deity murti on an ornate throne-like setting, draped in dense garlands of yellow marigolds, white flowers, purple and red blooms, with green leaves. The murti wears a crown with a crescent and gold jewellery. Golden standing figures flank the scene at left and right, and a red curtain hangs behind. In the lower left, a man with a rust-coloured turban, bare upper torso and layered rudraksha malas sits smiling before a microphone stand, beside a silver staff. Silver vessels appear at the lower edge. The man's appearance is an appearance-based candidate, but cues are limited to his turban and beads, so the identity is uncertain.
