A temple-style stage with a painted blue and gold backdrop and gilded thrones holds a wedding-style ritual. Two priests in white dhotis with shaved heads stand before a deity murti dressed in pink and green silk and heavily garlanded with marigolds, while a man in a rust-orange dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala stands near them offering something. Golden-yellow turmeric blocks and offering trays with fruit and sweets lie on a red mat. A seated figure in orange robes sits at the left, and a bride-like deity murti in pink silk and garlands sits on the right beside a second deity in a deep purple garment.
