The central figure is a deity murti standing before a cobra-hood style arch covered in silver studs, wearing a tall dark crown, a white body with a sandal-paste and rudraksha bead mala, and a purple dhoti. Garlands of white jasmine and red roses hang from the arch. On the left stands a figure with a dark turban, a gold and bead necklace and a maroon garment, and on the right a figure in a tall striped crown, layered pearl necklaces and a royal blue sari with gold border.
