A person in a rust-red turban and matching red-brown wrap bows forward with the forehead resting on a grey carved stone ledge, in a temple setting. The turban has a gold ornamental clasp and a feather accent. A garland of white jasmine and pink and magenta flowers hangs over the shoulder, a gold bangle is on the upper arm, and a long dark braid falls down the back. Behind the stone, a brass oil lamp and carved stone deity figures are visible. The posture is a deep prostration of reverence at the sanctum ledge.
