A seated figure in orange-red robes with a gold-bordered cloth performs a puja on an orange cloth spread across a white marble floor. Brass items are arranged before them: a brass plate holding a red flower, a small brass cup, a conch shell on a stand, a brass bell, a small oil lamp and an incense stick in a holder, and a dish of kumkum or vibhuti. A green-tinted basin with floating flowers sits behind. A rudraksha mala hangs at the shoulder and a bangle is worn on the wrist. No face is visible, so the figure is described by role only; a person is unsure.
