A seated man in an orange saffron garment with a rudraksha mala and a garland of yellow and purple flowers sits on an ornate gold throne with a cushioned seat. A woman in a white sari with a green border bends forward to touch his feet, while a flower-decorated gold trident stands beside the throne. Behind them a large orange backdrop shows a goddess figure with gold jewellery and a crown, and a gold kalasha-style vessel and ceremonial staff sit at the right. Two men in white dhotis sit at the lower left. The scene reads as a padapuja devotee moment; the seated man is a person by his orange clothing, long swept hair, and rudraksha mala, seated on a throne.
