The figure on the left wears an orange turban and a golden-embroidered orange garment. The figure on the right wears an orange sari with a tall ornate headdress and jewelry. All three are draped with garlands of white, yellow and red flowers, and the altar is decorated with more flower garlands and loose blooms in front.
