Photograph of a large gold-painted seated figure in the foreground, a monkey-faced deity murti with open palms, sitting before three smaller painted murtis on an orange-draped platform against a pale wall. Behind them, a framed picture of a temple hangs at the top edge, and a wooden door appears at right. The smaller figures wear layered gold necklaces, jewelled green and red stones, and draped silks in pink, orange and mustard; one stands with a raised arm, another kneels with a flute-like form. No living people are visible.
