Photograph of an ornate stage set with gold-painted carved lion-headed pillars flanking a central doorway hung with strings of lights and hanging brass bells beneath a maroon velvet valance. A large seated figure in a rust-orange robe sits at the centre on a raised platform, holding a staff, as a statue or deity-like figure rather than a visible living person. Brass lamps and trident-shaped stands line the foreground, and a multicoloured woven rug covers the floor. Blue painted walls show carved deity figures and decorative panels. No physical people are visible in the scene.
