A photograph of a stage set for a ritual event, with a dark maroon velvet backdrop. In the centre, a seated figure in a saffron-orange cloth and matching shawl sits on a gold ornate throne under a gold umbrella-like canopy, hands joined in namaskar, with a trident standing beside the throne. Garlanded deity murtis flank the stage: on the left a figure decorated with yellow and purple flower garlands, on the right a garlanded murti in front of a yellow cloth. Rows of brass oil lamps are placed on the floor at the right. Gold lion sculptures stand on the left and right edges. No clearly distinctive appearance cues establish the seated figure's identity, so the role is given as a seated devotee/ritual officiant.2015-09-05November 10 20152015-11-10September 05 20152015-09-05November `4 2015 +1 copiesA man in an orange-red robe and matching orange turban sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion heads and a tiger-skin rug, hands raised palm-to-palm at chest height in greeting or blessing.
