A small red wooden chair with a high arched back and turned legs stands on a wet concrete floor in front of a gold-ornamented throne. On its seat sits a silver plate holding white ash or vibhuti mounds and small dried offerings, possibly part of a puja setup. Only the bare feet and lower red-and-gold sari of a standing person are visible at the left edge. Red petals or kumkum specks scatter on the floor.
