The seated person wears a pink flower garland, has white forehead markings and a reddish-orange garment, and holds a folded paper. Four men in white shirts and white dhotis lean in to hand over envelopes or documents; one wears a grey-green shawl and glasses. A small bouquet of pink flowers rests on the throne cloth. Behind them, a saffron flag hangs from a pillar, with white pillars, a golden wall and a side shrine.
