Three carved wooden or painted murtis stand in a golden arched shrine before a green silk backdrop. The central deity figure wears a tall ornate crown with a tilak mark, a jewelled rudraksha-style necklace and a long garland, with arms raised in blessing. Flanking figures on either side wear heavy gold garlands and beaded necklaces, one in a blue blouse and orange-red sari-style drape, the other in a maroon garment. Brass oil lamps and a small offering vessel sit on a magenta cloth at the base. Visible pictured figures are statues, not physical people.
