A standing man in saffron-orange robes, head and shoulders draped with an orange cloth, offers flowers at a shrine. Before him stands a golden-hued pair of deity murtis, one wearing a red and gold crown and jewelled necklaces, seated on a throne-like dais framed by a golden arch and garlands of yellow marigolds and red-purple flowers. A white marble figure of a seated man sits in front on an orange cloth, and a small portrait-like image appears on the white-draped platform. Tall brass oil lamps stand at the sides, with red curtains behind. Small wooden stools hold flower offerings.

Behind is a golden deity murti pair with red and gold crowns, garlanded with yellow and red marigold flowers and red curtains. A white seated stone figure with raised hand sits in the foreground, and tall brass oil lamps stand at the sides. The scene appears to be a ritual bathing or abhishekam-style offering.
