A man in orange saffron robes bows forward with his head resting on a grey stone altar ledge in a temple shrine. He wears a rudraksha mala draped from his hands and is barefoot, standing on a leopard-print mat. On the altar behind him sit brass lamps, a brass plate with offerings, and a white marble statue of a seated figure in a white garment with a green sash. Red-and-white striped walls and a red curtain frame the shrine. The bowing man's features are not distinct enough to confirm identity, so he is described only by role as a devotee.
