A man in a white dhoti and white shawl stands beside an ornate gold throne with red cushions, draped in yellow and red-purple marigold garlands. He wears a beige turban, a red tilak on his forehead, and a layered gold and white beaded necklace. Behind him a large backdrop shows a painted deity murti with a red face and gold jewellery, and a Kannada phrase is partly visible. To the right are an orange cushioned chair, a gold statue and a canopy with garlands. Compositionally the scene is a stage at a ceremonial event. Swamiji (probable) cues: turban, white ritual clothing and gold necklace; the figure is standing alone on the stage beside the throne.
