A devotee in an orange-red sari with bare back and arm bangles stands at right, facing a shrine. Inside, a carved stone niche holds a deity murti of Shiva with a trident and dark skin, flanked by a female deity and another standing figure. Marigold and red flower garlands drape the statues, and brass oil lamps and a brass bowl sit on the stone platform. Colourful cloth hangings frame the open doorway, and the scene is an outdoor temple setting.
