A photograph of a seated deity murti on an ornate gold throne-like dais in a dimly lit hall with bluish haze. The figure wears a dark red cloth wrapped on the head, a beaded necklace, and a leopard-print lower garment, raising one hand in blessing while holding a long trident. Several silver tridents stand upright on either side of the dais, with green plants at the base, and a painted mountain backdrop behind. No physical people are visible. The figure is a statue, not a living person, so no identity is attributed.
