Around the feet are silver bowls holding red and yellow rose petals, white rice or grain, and small pieces of fruit. Brass vessels and a small golden kalasha-style vessel stand on the tray. A white-clad figure is partly visible at the lower left edge. The scene is a padapuja, where a devotee's feet are honoured with offerings.
