A man seated in front of an ornate silver and jewelled backdrop studded with red, green and blue gems, holding a silver tray of white and pink flower garlands and offerings. He wears a maroon-red cloth, rudraksha-style gold ceremonial necklaces, gold armlets and bangles, white sacred ash marks on his forehead and a red tilaka. Beside him a silver deity murti of an elephant-headed form is decorated with gems and draped in a red cloth, sitting on a tiger-striped cushion. A second man in a reddish cloth stands at right, assisting with the tray. The setting appears to be an outdoor evening ritual with greenery behind.
