A standing man in a rust-brown dhoti and wrap with a gold-bead garland raises one hand in blessing beside a gilded statue of a standing deity on the left. Behind him, a large deity murti dressed in a pink and green sari with a silver crown and garlands sits on a red throne framed by an orange, white and purple floral arch. Two smaller deity figures in purple and blue silk saris with floral garlands flank the central murti, with a pedestal fan in front and decorative tassels hanging above. The man's appearance with a gold garland and saffron-brown clothing suggests a person, though the image is not conclusive.
