A photograph inside a gilded temple hall at Sripuram. In the foreground a woman in an orange saree stands with palms pressed together in namaste beside a tall copper-coloured kalasha-style sculpture, a pillar-like ritual object with green leaf garlands and a wrapped blue cloth. Petals and marigold blossoms are scattered on the pedestal. Behind her, a second person in an orange-red garment and red head covering, wearing a garland, sits near a flower-decorated altar with red drapery and gold ornamental architecture. Ornate golden walls and a hanging lamp surround the hall.
