A photograph of a decorated deity murti standing on a gold-toned pedestal beneath an ornate gilded arch. The murti wears a red and gold garment, a crown, a large silver necklace and a long spear, and is draped in a dense garland of white, red, yellow, purple and green flowers. Golden lion-shaped supports flank the murti. Tall brass oil lamps with bird-finial tops stand in front, with potted plants nearby. To the right, a large printed portrait shows a smiling man in a cream turban with a red tilak, wearing a red garment and a flower garland, beside a gilded lectern decorated with red flowers. The printed portrait is a depiction on a banner, not a physical person in the scene.
