A man in orange saffron robes and a rudraksha mala sits with eyes closed and hands clasped on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions. A red tilak mark is on his forehead. Behind him, deity murti with garlands and pink and red cloth. In the foreground, a man in white with his back to the camera faces the throne, with silver trays of flowers, rose petals and small glass bowls. The setting appears to be a temple puja. The seated figure's appearance (orange robes, rudraksha mala, ceremonial throne) is consistent with a person, seated for the padapuja.
