A central goddess figure with many arms holds weapons and stands on a lion; she wears a red sari, yellow marigold garlands and a crown. Flanking her are ornate golden arched backdrops with a seated goddess holding a veena and a standing goddess, plus a figure with an elephant head in pink and gold. A seated man in the lower right wears a brown-orange robe and a flower garland, sitting on a silver throne-like seat with his back partly turned to the camera. In the foreground a devotee with dark hair in a brown garment faces the altar. The altar holds marigold garlands, flower trays, a brass pot, oil lamps and a silver-framed plaque. A red clock reading 10:03 is visible at the top.
