A long-haired man in a leopard-print sleeveless garment and many rudraksha malas, with a white tripundra mark on his forehead, touches the forehead of a kneeling devotee in a white dhoti with a gold border. The devotee has a gold bangle and a red thread on his wrist and holds his palm up. Behind them, a second man in white dhoti with gold border stands, and a golden deity murti sits on the lower left. The background has gold carved panels and pink and maroon lattice patterns.
