A seated man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne (peetha) decorated with a long white garland and pink flowers. Light sandalwood or vibhuti marks show on his bare upper body, and a rudraksha-style neckpiece is visible. A man in a checked beige shirt kneels at the left with a silver bowl, and a woman with grey hair in an orange-and-red sari kneels at the right, pouring or offering from a small vessel into a silver bowl. A white-flower garland and a floral offering sit on a golden tray before the throne. Cream pillars, blue windows and a wall cooler frame the room. The seated figure is identified by the page only; appearance cues are a bare-chested saffron-clad figure on a throne with garlands, so the identity is uncertain. Three physical people are visible.
