Interior shrine of a temple with a deity murti pair, seated figures in green and blue-and-gold garments garlanded with white and multicolour flower strands, and a standing sage statue in rust-brown robes with an orange turban and flower garland beside a black Shivalinga on a stone base. Brass oil lamps stand on both sides, and a small figure and a red-clad image sit on silver-edged pedestals in front. A single devotee with bare upper arms and long braided hair, wearing a red-orange garment, stands at right with palms joined in prayer. The scene suggests puja or darshan at the shrine.
