A photograph of a temple shrine with a large gilded arch framing a magenta backdrop. Central deity murti sculptures, painted in warm bronze tones, are seated on a green and blue throne-like pedestal draped with garlands of yellow and red flowers, with a large shivalinga-style form and a garlanded central idol. Two standing attendant statues flank the shrine, one in an orange turban with a tiger-striped garment and the other in a dark turban and rudraksha-style necklaces, each wearing white and red flower garlands. Brass oil lamps stand at the sides and a small brass vessel and offering bowls rest on the altar in front. No living people are visible; all figures are statues.
