In a gray-colored temple stand two men in white robes to the left and right of a kind of altar in red and gold with behind it a niche containing an image of a god with a red and gold patterned cloth in front of it; the niche is framed by an arch in which figures of people and animals can be discovered; the man on the left holds a scented oil lamp forward, the man on the right holds a kind of parasol, in front of the image on the altar stands a bowl with two green fruits and a small bowl with a red cloth over it. The image is framed by two narrow borders in white and yellow, between them thin red frame lines and then framed by a broader black border on which two white frame lines; the outer border is damaged.
