A seated figure in an orange-red turban and saffron robe sits on a red-upholstered throne with ornate gold carved backing and a gilded lion-like carving at the armrest.

A man in a white dhoti with gold borders and a rudraksha mala offers an item from a metal plate to the seated figure, who reaches toward it. Banana leaves and a patterned orange-and-green cloth hang behind, and a seated crowd of devotees in white fills the background.
