A man stands barefoot on a carved wooden throne-like seat at the front, wearing a black swept-back hair style, a rudraksha mala and ornate gold necklace, an orange shawl over a patterned tunic and orange dhoti, holding a trident (trishul) in his left hand. Seated and standing devotees fill the foreground and middle, many wearing orange and white clothing and orange sashes, some with hands folded in prayer. Framed devotional pictures hang on the wall behind. Roughly 40 to 60 people are visible.
