A woman in a beige sari with a mustard-yellow blouse and dark hair in a bun stands at a shrine, holding incense sticks from which smoke rises. Before her is a table draped in blue cloth holding stainless steel covered vessels and a plate of offerings. Behind the table, a gold-coloured statue of a seated figure wears a maroon turban, a saffron-maroon garment and a white beaded necklace, with one hand raised in blessing. Golden lion-shaped pillars flank the shrine, and an ornate silver temple cabinet stands at right. The scene depicts a statue shown in a shrine, not a physical person.

Beside it are a golden lion-faced deity figure, a framed black-and-white portrait on a small wooden stand with a red tilak mark, pink lotus flowers, a small potted plant, and rows of small lit oil lamps on a silver-covered table.
