A photograph of two life-sized deity murti figures on an ornate gilded arch framed by bright pink draped fabric and green foliage. The figure on the left is a male deity with a red and orange turban, a golden trident held in one hand, a rudraksha mala and silver jewelled necklaces, and a dark green lower garment. Beside him is a female deity in orange and red sari-style dress with layered silver and gold necklaces, a dark blue crown-like headpiece, and a long sceptre. Both have gold-painted faces and arms. The statues appear to be processional or stage figures rather than living people.
