A man in a maroon-brown garment with a red turban, heavy gold necklaces and a long pink-and-white flower garland stands centrally, hands folded, with a pale garland at his neck, while many people in saffron-orange robes and rudraksha malas stand behind. Three seated figures in orange cloth sit on a red carpet before a floor-decorated flower arrangement of yellow and white blossoms with red petals, brass figurines and a kalasha pot with green leaves. A woman in an orange-and-yellow sari stands at right with a mala. The scene suggests a puja or darshan with flower offerings.
