Photograph of a Ganesha deity murti seated on an ornate gold throne with a gold arched backdrop and gold lion-figure pillars. The murti wears a red turban, red and gold garments, jewelled ornaments and a green leaf garland draped around the throne. In the foreground at the lower centre sits a gold kalasha-like vessel with lotus-shaped offerings. On the right, a man with long hair and a saffron/orange turban and wrap holds a lamp (aarti) toward the deity, while another person's hand holds a small bell. This appears to be a ritual of alankara and aarti. The image is credited to
