The seated figure wears orange-red clothing, a rudraksha mala and a white flower garland, and holds a ritual object. To the right, a deity murti is decorated with a rainbow-coloured floral arch and garlands. Brass pots and offerings sit at the base of the throne, with a dark broom and lamps on the stage.
