Indoor home shrine visit with several devotees. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with a white and red flower garland and long dark hair faces left, hands folded in greeting, with a second saffron-robed person partly visible at the lower left. An older man in a light blue shirt and checked lungi bends forward, touching his forehead to an orange held in his hand, while a man in white with a rudraksha mala assists him. Women stand at right in teal, green and orange saris. Behind them is a decorated shrine with framed deity pictures, marigold flowers, a banana-leaf torana, a glass cabinet and oil lamps. The seated figure matches the page's a person cues of long hair, saffron robes and a garland, so the identity is probable, but the image alone leaves it uncertain. Fruit sits on a tray at the back.
