A temple shrine adorned with multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow, purple and white draped over a stone arch. A man in orange saffron robes stands at left, reaching toward two large deity murti seated on a throne, one with a tall crown and gold ornaments. Brass oil lamps and a hanging bell sit at the left, banana leaves frame the right, and carved grey granite pillars surround the altar. A seated figure in green and white is partly visible at lower left. The orange-clad figure has no clearly distinctive identifying cues beyond robes, so presence is uncertain.
