Behind it stand two richly decorated figures, a male figure in gold garments with a red and gold crown and a female figure in red and gold clothing, both covered in garlands. Left of centre, a man with long dark hair and a gold-patterned headwrap wears an orange garment, white flower garland and gold bangle, smiling toward the altar. Other people in orange robes stand at the left edge. Brass oil lamps, a kalasha pot, flower offerings and a white cloth surround the altar on a raised platform. The man's appearance is consistent with the page's a person reference but uncertain.
