A seated figure in yellow clothing sits on an ornate gold throne on a stage decorated as a thatched village hut with painted red-brown doors, red curtained windows, peacock feathers and hanging gourds. The figure wears a yellow turban-style headwear, a yellow robe and a long garland of yellow, orange and purple flowers. Brass oil lamps stand beside the throne and large painted clay pots flank the stage, with flower offerings at the base. Microphones on stands are positioned in front of the throne. The throne is adorned with gold carvings and red cushions. Appearance cues are limited, so the figure is described by role as a seated speaker, and no identification is made.
