A man in an orange-red sleeveless garment with long dark hair tied back stands with folded hands before a shrine, facing a golden statue of a bearded saint wearing an orange turban and a white beaded necklace, draped in a garland of red, orange, yellow and purple flowers. Beside the statue sit two smaller painted figures in blue and white. A tall brass oil lamp with a lit flame stands at the right, and marigold petals and flowers are scattered on the stone platform. Carved grey stone pillars and a pink curtain frame the shrine.
