A shirtless man in a white dhoti stands at left, holding a brass puja vessel and reading or chanting from a small book beside a brass lamp on a low shrine table. Behind him, a golden arched shrine frame, draped with orange and white marigold garlands, frames a painted deity murti seated on a blue cloth-draped platform, holding a trident-like weapon and wearing a crown. A brass kalasha sits on a plate at the front, with flowers and a pink cloth on the table. At right, a silver-and-red decorated figure with a red garland and a large decorative bowl sits on a magenta-draped table beside a white curtain. Bookshelves stand in the background.
