A person in a saffron-orange robe bends low in prostration before shrine figures in a garden setting. Two dark stone deity murtis stand on red-and-white striped plinths, one wearing a tall orange-and-red turban and gold-trimmed attire, adorned with red and yellow flower garlands. Golden carved archways and pillars frame the shrine. Trees and potted plants surround the courtyard, and a small name plaque is visible on the plinth.
