A decorated deity murti stands under a gilded arch against a bright green silk backdrop, draped in white jasmine garlands and red flower strands, wearing an orange turban, jewelled ornaments and a crown. A smiling bald man in a gold-bordered garment and a gold chain stands at the right, holding a silver chain leash attached to a black and tan puppy with an orange collar, which leans toward the murti's base. The base is covered with a magenta silk cloth with gold embroidery, and a plate of red fruit is visible at the lower left. The scene appears to be a temple or ashram ritual setting.
