A photograph of a stage set for a ceremony, with a seated figure on a large golden throne with red cushions at the centre. The seated figure wears an orange robe and a white garland and sits beneath a yellow canopy, flanked by floral-garlanded deity murtis and golden vahana figures of animals. Around the stage, several people in white dhotis and saffron shawls sit on the floor, some with brass vessels and offerings, while a woman in a green sari sits among them. The backdrop shows a painted temple gateway. Given the page's reference to a person and the throne, the central seated figure is a person with orange robe, white garland and throne, and the appearance cues are moderate, so this is marked unsure. The seated group performs a puja-style satsang setting.
