A seated figure in an orange-saffron robe sits with hands folded in a meditative pose on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, on a stage. Behind the throne a large printed backdrop shows a colourful multi-tiered gopuram temple tower with many carved figures. Dark blue drapery hangs at the sides, flanked by two wooden pillars with decorative bases. The figure's appearance is consistent with a shaved-headed devotee in saffron clothing, and the throne is a stage seat rather than evidence of identity, so identity is uncertain.
