A bearded man with long dark hair sits on an ornate silver throne upholstered in red velvet, wearing a rust-red draped garment over his shoulder. He holds a tall silver ceremonial staff with a decorative finial beside him, and a silver stand with a small tablet rests to the right. Seated and standing devotees fill the foreground and background, many women in saffron, orange and white saris and shawls, some with kumkum on their foreheads. Red stage carpeting and a red curtain form the backdrop. The scene reads as a large public discourse or ceremony with many attendees.
