A photograph of two golden metal deity murtis decorated for worship, set before a backdrop of yellow, red, green and white flower garlands. The figure on the left, with a tall matted headdress of rudraksha beads and a crescent, holds a golden trident and wears a leopard-print cloth, a rudraksha mala, and a large white jewelled hand-shaped ornament. The figure on the right wears a black and white crown, a red and white sari with a purple blouse, and layered pearl and silver necklaces with earrings. The statues are the only figures visible, so no physical people are present.
