A woman in a white sari with a gold border kneels at lower left, lighting a small flame from an oil lamp held in her hand before a framed photograph on a pedestal. The framed photo shows a dark stone lingam marked with vertical tilaka lines and red kumkum. Behind it, a gold-painted seated figure in a maroon turban, layered jewelled necklaces and a maroon and gold dhoti sits on a yellow throne with raised hand in blessing, holding a flower. A gold lion-form carving and a gold rooster-shaped lamp stand beside it, with draped blue and maroon fabric behind. Pink lotus flowers and orange blossoms decorate the altar. The figure on the altar is a statue and a printed image, not a physical person.
