A person in an orange-red robe stands with hands folded in front of a gilded shrine niche with carved golden arches and silver pillars, lit by a row of small lamps. Inside the shrine is a golden Nataraja-style dancing figure and a deity murti; a pink flower garland hangs above. On the altar stand silver bowls and a brass kalasha, a brass oil lamp burns at the right, and a silver plate holds pink flowers. The person wears a gold-beaded necklace, a flower-patterned headband and a beaded armlet, and the image is a photograph of a temple puja setting.
