The seated figure wears orange robes, a rudraksha mala and a white forehead mark, with hands resting on the arm of the throne. Two women in orange and maroon sit on the floor to the throne's right, and a third person sits behind on the left. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides of the doorway, and string lights glow behind the throne. The walls are blue, pink and green with painted pillars and deity carvings.
