A seated man with a shaved head and pink-and-white flower garland sits in front of a large ornate deity murti of a goddess with multiple arms and a yellow-gold halo-style backdrop with many small faces. The murti holds a veena-like stringed instrument and raises one hand in blessing; a second, smaller ornate figure stands behind. The seated man wears a white embroidered garment and gold bangles and smiles. Silver and gold decorations frame the scene. The man's appearance does not clearly match the page's claim, so he is described by role only.
