A photograph of a temple-style hall with a golden throne (peetha) at centre, draped in a floral arch of marigold garlands in red, yellow, white and purple. A seated figure in red-orange robes and a headdress holds up a white card with a circular emblem, and wears a white flower garland. To the right, a standing attendant in white dhoti with a bare upper body, sacred thread and tilak holds a green cloth-covered tray. Behind them, painted pillars and a carved orange-and-green cornice frame the shrine; deity statues flank the throne and a golden bull and swan vahana sit at the sides. The seated figure is a person by appearance cues in the golden-orange robes and headdress, though the face is not identifiable.
