The person wears a dark maroon garment, a gold chain, multiple beaded and gold necklaces, a red and pink flower garland, and gold bangles on the arms. Behind is a backdrop of yellow, red, white and orange flower garlands, and gold ornamental edging appears at the lower right. A red-and-maroon patterned cushion and a rose with leaves lie nearby. Pouring from a kalasha during bathing-type ritual is visible; a rose sits on the cloth before the figure.
