Close-up photograph of a metal murti or statue of a deity's face, with a polished copper-gold finish, painted black eyes, red lips and a red bindi-like mark on the forehead. It wears an orange-red embroidered turban with gold brocade, a jewelled crown-like ornament, pearl strands, and ornate jewelled earrings in pink, green and white stones. Part of a gold ceremonial trident or staff is visible at the left edge, and a deep maroon velvet curtain forms the background. No living people are visible.
