Around them on a red cloth are brass oil lamps, small brass bowls, a brass plate with flowers and leaves, a conch shell, and a lit incense stick sending up smoke. White horizontal markings are visible on the forearms. The setting appears to be an indoor ritual space with a multicoloured striped mat.
