A man with long dark hair, a beard and a white tilaka on his forehead sits on a wooden seat in a saffron-orange robe with a gold-bead necklace, smiling as he holds a silver tray. The tray holds a small silver box, a dark pyramid-shaped object and a white cloth. Behind him a man in white dhoti with orange-gold border and a rudraksha mala stands, and a woman in a maroon sari with a mala watches. Several women in saris sit on the right, one in an orange sari clapping, and a person in white kneels at the lower right edge. A bronze statue and a small lamp stand nearby.
