The male figure on the left wears a white dhoti with gold borders, a gold-and-white turban, a bead-embellished necklace with green stones, and holds a ceremonial staff in one raised hand. The female figure on the right wears a magenta silk sari with gold brocade, a jeweled conical crown, layered necklaces and earrings, and holds a flaming ritual object. Both are statues, not living people, so no physical people are present.2007-03-15A photograph of a gilded bronze statue pair seated side by side on a lotus-petal pedestal under a stone colonnade with greenery behind.
