A dark stone deity murti seated against a gold-patterned cloth backdrop is being anointed and decorated. A woman in a red saree with gold border stands at left, her arm extended to place a red flower or offering on the murti's crown, while she holds a gold-rimmed tray with betel leaves, white offerings and a small lamp. The murti wears a gold crown and has a red tilak on its forehead; its four arms are visible, one holding a long stem. Red cloth draped over the murti's shoulder matches the woman's saree. The scene suggests a puja with abhishekam and alankaram.
