A man seated on a gold-framed wooden throne-like seat wears an orange turban, a leopard-print shawl over orange clothing, and a heavy gold-and-beaded necklace with rudraksha-style beads; he smiles and faces a small group. Beside him stands a tall trident-like staff with a small hanging drum. Around him, several seated devotees wear orange shawls: a man in a blue jacket and dark sunglasses, a woman in a light blue salwar kameez, a woman in red with her hair in a plait, and a man in a dark jacket. At the lower right stand decorated deity murtis dressed in orange and red with garlands, and a gold-trimmed kalasha-like object is partly visible. Pebbles and grass line the shore.
