In the foreground a woman in a white and black patterned salwar with a black shawl smiles and holds a white plate with a small clay figure and offerings, beside a young girl in white.

Several devotees in white with folded hands stand behind, and a red box of bangles and apples sits at lower right. Pillars of green fruit garlands frame the left edge.
