A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with a carved arched back and red cushion, wearing a maroon-red robe, a long rudraksha-style mala and a gold ceremonial necklace, with a red tilak on the forehead. He holds a small object and a leaf plate with food sits on a gold stool before him. A silver trident stands to the left beside a brass vessel and a small wooden stool. A woman in white churidar with a red-orange shawl walks past carrying a small plate, while a white ceiling fan stands on the right against bamboo screens and a red curtain. An orange cloth lies on the throne and a red-patterned carpet covers the floor. Scene appears to be a ritual setting with the seated figure as the central subject, possibly a person based on the maroon robe, rudraksha mala and gold necklace, though identity is uncertain.
