Inside a marble-walled temple sanctum, a figure in an orange-red draped garment with gold border and gold beaded necklaces stands in the foreground, viewed from behind, arms bent and one arm adorned with bands. Beyond the doorway, two more people in saffron-orange robes attend a shrine; one bends forward pouring or offering at a dark deity murti dressed with red and orange cloth and a gold crown-like arch behind it. Brass vessels stand on a low wooden table. Two people in orange and one partly visible in white and gold are shown, and the foreground person is not clearly identifiable, so a person is unsure.
