A man stands on a ceremonial stage in a red silk dhoti and draped red shawl, wearing a dense multi-strand gold and rudraksha-style bead mala with a large gold pendant, gold armbands and wrist bands, and a black turban with a gold crescent ornament and gold headpiece. A red vertical tilak mark is on his forehead. Beside him stand ornate gold and silver oil lamps with peacock-shaped tops, a tall gold trident, and a white jasmine garland hanging from a gold chain. Behind him is a gilded deity murti with a large gold base and a red cushioned seat at lower right. The scene suggests a puja or abhishekam setting.
