A seated person in saffron-orange robes holds a small brass kalasha-style vessel on a long metal rod. Another hand holds a dark twisted object near the floor. Standing beside are people in white dhotis with blue-edged borders and a figure in pink cloth with bare feet. The face of the seated figure is not visible, so the identity cannot be confirmed from appearance.
