A woman in a red saree sits cross-legged on a striped mat in a gold-decorated temple hall, hands pressed in namaskar before a framed portrait garlanded with rudraksha-style beads and marigolds. The framed portrait shows a figure holding a trident, wearing red-orange dhoti-like cloth; it is a printed picture, not a physical person. Brass oil lamps with flames, a plate of flowers, a kalasha-like brass vessel and offerings sit on a draped table before it. A dark green-robed deity murti stands to the left, and a golden throne with a red cushion is visible in the background behind a curtain.
