A seated man in orange-saffron robes sits with palms joined in namaskar on a gold-embossed throne against a red draped backdrop. Flanking him on both sides are two large golden deity murti, each wearing a crown, jewelled necklaces and layers of white and red-orange flower garlands. The murti on the left has an orange turban and holds a staff-like ritual object, while the one on the right wears a yellow-gold dhoti. The seated man wears a rudraksha-style mala, a gold chain, and a white tilak on his forehead. A small figure in the lower left corner and a golden kalasha-style ornament appear at the edges. Pinkish-purple and yellow flowers decorate the throne back. The setting suggests a temple darshan or ceremonial presentation.
