A seated man in a dark red-brown robe and a leopard-print headwrap with green leaves and red flowers in his hair receives an offering on a brass plate from a bare-chested priest in white dhoti. The seated man wears long white and red-rose garlands, gold armbands and a gold necklace, and smiles as he reaches toward the plate of nuts and fruit. An attendant in saffron-orange robes and rudraksha beads stands behind, with a second saffron-clad attendant beside him. A silver-backed throne with a red cushion and a carved wooden armrest appear in the background, with an older bare-chested man seated at the right edge. Setting appears to be a temple courtyard with stone walls.
