Two gilded deity murtis seated side by side on a throne-like altar, heavily decorated with multicoloured flower garlands in red, pink, yellow, white and purple forming an arch behind them. The figure on the left wears a tall ornate crown, gold jewellery and a golden yellow dhoti, holding one hand in abhaya mudra and the other holding a red palm-leaf style book with a fringed tassel. The figure on the right wears a red and gold crown, emerald-set necklace, pearl and gem-studded garland and a red silk garment. No physical people are visible; the statues are the only figures in the scene. Text on the red book is not legible enough to transcribe.
