A seated figure in an orange and red robe with a long rudraksha mala and gold ornaments, wearing a gold armlet and bangles, sits on an orange cushioned chair receiving apples from a child in a pink dress with a red bindi and beaded necklace. A man in white with jasmine garland bends forward holding an apple, and a woman in white with a garland kneels in front. Behind them, a standing group of devotees in orange and white clothing watches, with a priest in orange holding a silver staff and a bald priest in an orange robe nearby. Fruit and white flower petals lie on the orange floor cloth. The a person depicted in the robe is a probable match from the orange clothing, rudraksha mala and gold ornaments, seated as the central figure receiving offerings.
