Photograph of a decorated deity murti group on a golden arched backdrop with green drapery. The central deity is a golden-faced figure with a tall golden crown bearing a red and white tripundra mark, wearing a richly jewelled silver and gem-set necklace, hands raised in blessing. Flanking figures wear red and maroon dresses with crowns, decorated with jewelled ornaments. Heavy gold chains and garlands of red roses, yellow marigolds and purple flowers drape the figures. This is a deity murti, not a living person. Watermarked archive photo copy omitted.
