A seated man in a rust-red robe is heavily garlanded with red roses, pink petals and white jasmine strands, and wears a jewelled crown with blue and red flowers. He holds two green limes in his hands with eyes lowered. Behind him, a bare-chested priest in a white dhoti with orange border wears a rudraksha mala, and a woman in a maroon sari stands near the orange drape. In the foreground a woman in a dark blouse faces him, a silver plate and brass kalasha sit at the edge, and a cardboard box holds rose petals and rudraksha malas. Two electric fans stand at the sides. The scene suggests a puja or ritual honour.
