A tiered display of small woven baskets filled with fruit and topped with green leaves and yellow flowers, arranged on a white-draped table in a covered tent. Behind it hangs a large plastic-sheet backdrop printed with rows of painted figures of standing men in colourful dhotis and turbans, many holding musical instruments, with a seated figure in the centre. A brass oil lamp stands at the table's base, and a garland of yellow flowers hangs at left. Two people in white dhotis and shirts stand partly visible at the left edge. The setting suggests a festival offering arrangement.
