A man with grey hair tied up at the back, wearing a white kurta and white dhoti, kneels on a striped rug with hands folded, facing a standing woman. She wears an orange-red sari and shawl, layered rudraksha malas, a gold necklace, bangles, and a forehead tilak, and holds a tall ceremonial staff with bells. Behind them stands a silver-and-gold deity murti in a decorated shrine alcove, with a large ornate gold arch and an orange draped backdrop on the right, and a decorative canopy with a bird emblem at upper left.
