A woman in a red sari with a gold-bordered blouse stands at left, holding a brass aarti plate with a lit lamp toward a small golden deity pair seated on a gold-draped seat in front of a golden lion-shaped stand. At right, a large golden statue of a seated figure wears a maroon turban, ornate silver necklaces and a maroon-and-gold draped cloth, raising one hand in blessing. A framed black-and-white portrait sits on a small silver stand before the statue, with lit oil lamps and pink lotus flowers arranged on the floor and a red cloth covering the plinth. Oil lamps glow in the foreground. The setting is a brown-walled shrine room with a wall heater.
