A bronze-toned seated deity murti of Shiva and Parvati, with a tall crown on the male figure and an ornate headdress on the female figure, is being inspected outdoors under a white tarpaulin. A man in a saffron-orange robe with long, dark, swept-back hair stands at the left, one hand resting on the statue's arm, while a second man in a light shirt and a checked lungi stands behind. Another worker is visible at the far right near a brick structure, and bare earth, bricks and trees fill the background.
