The murti on the right wears a jewelled crown, rich ornamental necklaces and a gold armlet; the one on the left wears an orange-and-gold turban and gold necklaces. A woman in an orange sari with a white vibhuti mark on her forehead pours liquid from a brass vessel toward the murtis, and another person's arm with white markings holds a small brass bowl beside her. A lit oil lamp flame glows at the right edge.
