Outdoor photograph of a large painted deity murti of a fierce lion-faced figure with a crown, gold ornaments, a trident-like staff and a raised arm, mounted on a red-and-white striped platform draped with cloth. Leafy green branches surround the murti. Two men in orange-brown dhotis, one bare-chested with a rudraksha-style bead necklace, stand at the base tending the platform. A small figure stands at the upper right of the murti. Open grassland, bare earth, trees and a grey overcast sky form the background.
