To the left, a man in white dhoti with sandalwood-marked forehead and a bead mala holds a flower-filled brass tray. A man in white with a rudraksha mala stands at right with his back to the camera. A purple backdrop hangs behind the throne. Whether the seated figure is the a person cannot be established from appearance, so the role here is a seated figure receiving a tray.
