A photograph of a large ornate deity murti seated on a golden throne-like pedestal draped in gold brocade, framed by a tall arched backdrop of gold and blue embroidered panels. The murti wears layered white pearl garlands, a jewelled crown with a fan of red and multicoloured feathers, and gold ornaments. In the foreground a person with long dark hair, bare-shouldered and wearing an orange wrap, stands with their back to the camera facing the murti, with a brown beaded bracelet on one arm. A small golden lamp stand and a seated attendant in white appear at the left edge beside an air conditioning unit, with a dark red curtain and a gold pole at right.

He wears rudraksha malas on his neck and wrists and has sacred ash marks on his chest. The murti is adorned with white flower garlands and gold jewellery, with a colourful fan-shaped headpiece behind it. A gold pedestal below is draped with white and yellow cloth. A partially visible brass figure sits at the lower left. The scene reads as aarti during a ceremony. Only one physical person is visible.2017-08-19August 19 20172017-08-19
