A close-up photograph of a gilded metal deity murti adorned for worship. The face is polished gold with a red lip and a nose ring, and a dark crown-like headpiece is studded with sparkling jewels and round medallions. A heavy jewelled collar in green, red and white stones covers the chest over a gold-and-red silk garment. Fresh red roses, green leaves and long white jasmine garlands surround the figure, and the scene is lit warmly against a dark background.
