A person in a maroon robe with a red flower garland stands at a wooden doorway with palms pressed together in namaskar, facing a shrine. Inside, a yellow silk backdrop frames a deity murti in green and red robes adorned with red flower garlands, a crown and a trident-like weapon, seated beside a lion-like vahana. To its left stands a smaller murti in a red-brown dress with orange marigold garlands, a halo and a lotus-like base. Brass oil lamps, a small brass kalasha and wrapped gift-like offerings sit on the marble shelf, and a brass puja plate is at the bottom edge. Petals are scattered on the person's robe. Feathers and a peacock-shaped ornament hang above the shrine.
