A woman in a rust-orange sari with a gold border stands at left in front of a blue patterned backdrop, a white flower garland draped over her shoulder, her hands folded in devotion. At right is a decorated deity murti of Krishna, dressed in a silver-embellished garment, adorned with silver ornaments and a crown, flanked by garlands of yellow, red, purple and white flowers and a backdrop of peacock feathers. The murti sits on tiered gold cushions with a white cloth draped below. Lit lamps are visible at the top. This appears to be a pada puja or Janmashtami-related worship scene.
