A dim shrine corner shows a small brass-coloured standing statue of a male figure with a red tilak on his forehead, bare-chested with a draped lower garment and one hand raised in blessing. In front is a brass bowl lit with a bright oil lamp, decorated with a yellow and white flower, resting on a yellow-lined tray. A brass pedestal lamp stands at right and a stepped brass pyramidal object sits at left beside a framed portrait of a standing figure in red-orange robes. A hand holds the bowl at the lower right, and a green and pink cloth appears at the upper left. The scene looks like an offering or puja in a small home or temple shrine.
