A golden throne (peetha) under a white tent is decorated with garlands in red, yellow, purple and green and ornate white-and-blue arches. A man seated on the throne wears a white dhoti and a bare upper body with a gold necklace, long dark hair swept back, and smiles while being honoured. He holds a framed black-and-white sketch of a long-haired figure in white. A man in white shirt and dhoti holds the frame's other side, and a devotee in white kurta with red embroidery stands at right. A man in orange kurta stands at left with a woman in orange nearby, and a woman in a black blouse and braid sits in front. Children and a brass pot-shaped offering are visible. Attendants are gathered around the seated figure during a celebration.
