A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate white carved throne with leopard-print cushions, a rudraksha mala and bracelets visible, and an orange turban on his head, his hand raised near his chin. Beside him stands a tall brass trident with a damaru hung from it. To the left, a deity murti in pink and gold with a cobra hood and a long garland of white and red flowers is set up. Brass pots and kalashas and small offering trays sit on the floor, with a starry blue-and-purple backdrop behind.
