A photograph of a bare-chested priest in a white dhoti and sacred thread stands at the left, reaching up a metal scaffold toward a large Durga murti. The goddess has a golden face, a red sari with a floral pattern, many raised arms holding weapons, and white and multicolour flower garlands around her neck. Behind her, a golden arch of ornamental panels is decorated with multiple painted demon faces with red and blue features. The priest wears a rudraksha mala and bracelets, with white sandalwood marks on his arm. Orange and maroon draped fabrics are visible on the scaffolding. The scene shows a deity murti being attended on a scaffold during a Navaratri-related devotional setting.
