A figure in flowing saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha-style bead necklace stands at left, holding a lit lamp or flame toward a dark stone deity murti seated on a red-painted stone base. The murti has a white-topped crown and is dressed in dark clothing. In front, a black Shiva linga on a pedestal stands in a bed of reddish stones. At far left, a man in white clothes stands with hands folded, and another white-clad person is partly visible.
