A seated man in white ceremonial clothing, with a white collared kurta, sits with palms pressed together in anjali mudra before a large gold statue. He has a yellow-gold paste on his forehead with a small red mark at the centre and a short beard. To the left, a figure in saffron-orange robes wears a rudraksha mala. On the right, a brass oil lamp and a person in cream clothing are partly visible against a deep red and purple backdrop. The man shows no distinctive a person cues beyond white clothes and a forehead mark, so his identity is uncertain.
