Two large decorated murti figures stand before a teal draped backdrop framed by an ornate gold arch. The male figure wears a red, white and orange turban with a peacock feather, a plum velvet tunic with gold and jewelled epaulettes, and layered pearl and gold necklaces. The female figure wears a red embroidered sari with gold border, pearl necklaces, a jewelled headpiece and a gold nose ring. The female figure holds a gold mace-like object. Both figures have golden faces and dark painted hair or moustache. No physical people are visible; the figures are statues.
