A photograph of a temple shrine with a seated deity murti in an ornate gold-framed niche against a magenta backdrop. The central figure holds a trident in one hand and has a crown, a red-and-orange turban-like headdress, and many gold and bead necklaces. Beside him sits a female figure wearing a tall crown, garlands and a purple sari. Two standing attendant statues flank the shrine: the left in a red headdress and tiger-striped garment, the right in dark cloth with a red dhoti, both garlanded. Brass oil lamps stand in front, and a large garlanded mukha-style offering with red and yellow flowers sits at the base. No physical people are visible.
