A temple shrine photograph showing a large ornate deity murti of Shiva and Parvati seated together on a raised platform. Shiva wears an orange turban and holds a trident, while Parvati wears a crown and gold jewellery; both are draped in red and purple garments and garlanded with red and green flowers. In front, a silver-toned pot and a shivalinga-like form sit on a tray with a red garland. A smaller red-clad sage figure stands in a gilded niche at right, and brass oil lamps flank the sides under a golden arch with turquoise drapery. No living people are visible, and the page's a person flag does not establish any physical candidate.
