Outdoors on a stony mountain slope, a seated figure in orange clothing and a saffron cap sits on a gilded wooden throne, wearing a rudraksha mala and a shawl. A man in orange, holding a red umbrella overhead, crouches beside the throne, and a trident stands planted in the rocks at left. Two small deity murtis in red and gold sit on a golden-yellow cloth at right, with a strip of prayer flags and red cloths strung across the background. A patterned carpet covers the ground in front, and a few people in dark clothing sit at the lower right edge.
