A woman in a mustard-yellow silk saree kneels with her palms pressed together in namaste beside a decorated deity murti seated on an ornate golden throne. The murti wears a blue silk dress, a pink-and-gold crown, and garlands of orange and red marigolds, and holds a trident. In front of it stand a gilded bowl of white and red flowers, a tray of small oil lamps on a blue cloth, a plate of red fruit, and a red-and-gold offering. Maroon and gold banners hang on the left and a gold-sequined backdrop rises behind the throne.
