Around him, several attendants in orange saffron robes and orange turbans kneel and stand offering fruit, one kneeling child in an orange turban and another in orange clothing scatter petals on red cloth. A woman in an orange sari with a rudraksha mala stands on the right. Marigold garlands hang across the top of the frame. Visible people total about six.
