A figure seated on the right wears a red-maroon turban with a white feather, a matching maroon robe and a long beaded necklace; this figure bears a distinctive ceremonial appearance, and a person appearance is noted, though identity is uncertain. Several devotees sit cross-legged on a red cloth before brass plates of offerings and fruit. Some wear white kurtas with orange lanyards, one woman wears a maroon sari with a rudraksha mala, and another devotee wears a white shirt with a mala. A man in a white kurta on the left sits facing the throne.
