The figure on the left wears a red-orange turban and a jewelled crown-like headdress, with a pearl and red-stone garland, and holds a raised hand and a trident-like implement; the figure on the right wears a purple silk sari, gold jewellery, a tall ornate crown and carries a lotus-stem or staff. Both are draped in red and yellow rose and marigold garlands. In front, a conical structure is wrapped in an orange cloth with a multi-jewelled gold collar, a serpent hood canopy with green stone pendants, rudraksha beads, and a rose-marigold garland. Brass oil lamps sit at the base, and a gold-embroidered orange shawl covers the lower altar. Golden curtains form the backdrop.2013-03-06
