In front, on an orange cloth, a gold-coloured tray holds several silver plates of fruit, flowers and red-tinted offerings, with a silver jug at the right. A white plastic chair, a stand fan, a tripod light and a wooden cabinet stand in the background. No people are visible apart from a partial figure in white clothing at the right edge.
