An indoor, eye-level shot captures a museum display stand in Kediri, Indonesia, featuring a terracotta or stone sculpture of the Hindu deity Agni. The sculpture, a brownish, intricately detailed figure, is depicted riding a chāga (goat) and is mounted on the left side of a black information panel. The panel is titled "Agni & Chāga" and "Dewa Api" (God of Fire), with inventory numbers "19/RK/BS/056" and "27/AR/DT/N/24" printed below. A "DESKRIPSI: DESCRIPTION:" section provides details in both Indonesian and English. The English description explains: "Agni is the Hindu god of fire, often depicted riding a chāga (goat), a symbol of unquenchable power and energy. He acts as an intermediary between humans and the gods, delivering offerings through the sacred fire in religious ceremonies. In addition to being a link, Agni also symbolizes purification, as fire is thought to cleanse physical and spiritual impurities, as well as protect against evil forces. Agni's close presence in human life makes him one of the important gods in maintaining cosmic order." Further details on the panel include the logos for "PEMERINTAH KOTA KEDIRI" (Government of Kediri City) and "MUSEUM AIRLANGGA," alongside a QR code. The "PERIODE: PERIOD:" is listed as "Majapahit 13-14 M," indicating the artifact's origin from the 13th-14th century Majapahit era. The background features large windows revealing greenery outside, suggesting it is daytime. Blurred stone artifacts are partially visible on platforms in the periphery, indicating a museum or exhibition setting.
